It's amazing a love that transforms.


A love with its distinct qualities, with a distinct flavour of the person from whom this love flows.

A love that over time, completely alters the way we see the world, that compels us to integrate itself into our plans, into our desires, into our very being.

A love that brings freedom where any unrest once existed.




I experience this love in my own relationships.
I trust slowly, I give of myself when I sense that it is safe to do so.

More often I wish I could be like a child, without reserve or hesitation about asking a stranger what their name is.

Often through the rhythms of my life I see a restlessness.

"You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it rests in you."

That's what St. Augustine has written.
