“There is in us an instinct for newness, for renewal, for a liberation of creative power.
We seek to awaken in ourselves a force which really changes our lives from within. And yet the same instinct tells us that this change is a recovery of that which is deepest, most original, most personal in ourselves.
To be born again is not to become somebody else, but to become ourselves.”
~ Thomas Merton
Absolutely beautiful. It is strange that in moments of tears we need that shoulder to rest on, and know that we are loved.

Indeed…and to be present and available for one in need is a privilege.
