This is one of a few thoughts that have really hit home with me this week at Subiaco Abbey. It is so easy to believe your own press. What I feel like this time alone is saying to me is, "fancy words, moral stands and even the best performances mean little if I don't understand what it is to love and be loved." (Sounds like the lyrics to the Eden Ahbez song Nature Boy, but it's true enough for me). I'm nothing without the knowledge and the experience of the love of God for me His handpicked adopted son. I am also nothing if I don't reflect the same love to those around me. This love is 'fuerte y dulce" yet it is very tricky to duplicate.
