Yesterday I went to two Christmas events, a pageant and a concert and in between saw Sister Joyce. Actually, Rebecca,went with me to see SJ. I picked up some new insights on the pilgrimage toward Christmas.
First, we were singing carols at the pageant and I had to write down the second line of “We Three Kings” which was very Caminoy: fields and fountain, moor and mountain. Nice.
Then at the concert last night we listened to some great music. And one of our new friends, Jasper, sang In the preformance and not only sang but SANG! Wow. Sometimes people can just blow you away unexpectedly. Nice.
Then I wanted to report on what Sister Joyce said in answer to my question about how do we prepare for .Christmas. She laughed when I had my little notebook out to try and capture her thoughts but I was on the job for you. Here is what she said in paraphrased form: “If we can find the HUMILITY we will enjoy the SIMPLICITY that will put us closer to the MYSTERY.” Nice.
OK, it all continues. Take time for the important things, love, Felipe.
