Perhaps it was the closest to a spring morning i can ever hope to find in my tropical country—and it was enchanting.
The sun was cool and golden as i walked to Mass at the Capuchinesse Monastery on the other side of the wall from the Retreat Center; everything it touched seemed to glow a smile. After Mass, the warm greetings of old friends paired with charming, heartfelt smiles and ribbings, seemed to make the morning even more joyous. Walking back to the Center, i noticed the chorus of birdsong filling the air—trilling notes that seemed to dance on the rays of sunshine that made young, dewy leaves sparkle with delight. As the birds gaily hopped from one branch to another, i couldn’t help but be dumbfounded by the marvelous vision of life aglow.
Amid the troubles that i wearily carry, i felt as if the Lord had for a moment chosen to walk with me to remind me of hope and beauty.
<thank you, Lord.>
