When we endlessly ruminate over distant times, we miss extraordinary things in the present moment. These extraordinary things are,
in actual fact, all we have: the here and now.

How many times have you noticed that it’s the little quiet moments in the midst of life that seem to give the rest extra-special meaning?

Advent 2022 – Week 3 – silence
“In the silence of a midwinter dusk, there is a sound so faint that for all you can tell it may be only the sound of the silence itself. You hold your breath to listen. You are aware of the beating of your heart. The extraordinary thing that is about to happen is matched only by the extraordinary moment just before it happens. Advent is the name of that moment.”

Advent 2022 – Week 2 – Radical Waiting
Our spiritual life is a life in which we wait, actively present to the moment, expecting that new things will happen to us, new things that are far beyond our own imagination or prediction. This, indeed, is a very radical stance toward life in a world preoccupied with control.
