Seeing God In All The Wrong Places

Rain on the window.

 

There was a quote in my Richard Rohr’s book “Divine Dance” that caught my attention.  It was, “It’s why you begin to find yourself smiling at things for no apparent reason.”   Wait, why, why what?    Here is the whole paragraph:

“And  remember, if it is not flowing out of you, it’s probably because you’re not allowing it to flow toward you.   And love can flow toward you in every moment: through the image of a flower, in a grain of sand, in a wisp of cloud, in any one person whom you allow to delight you.  It’s why you begin to find yourself smiling at things for no apparent reason.”

Yea, OK, that sounds like something that is worth cultivating.  I do find myself more able to be in a good mood despite the surroundings, despite the climate, despite the situation.  Really they can be quite independent of one another.

We are learning so much hanging around the Camino.   I have never in my life had a comparable time of so much personal growth.  It’s all quite amazing really.

Well, maybe I’ll quit while I am ahead today.  Have some work to accomplish while I am in the comfy chair.  Take care, see you soon hopefully, love, Felipe.
