โ€œThere was a fabric of knowing, he claimed, beyond vision, beyond hearing. Just as dogs practise an apparently subsonic intelligence, or birds know by inner geometry their flight paths and havens, so there are latent forms of life everywhere and secret understandings.โ€

Because she is light of innocence,
because white things illuminate her mysterious light,
things taking on white,
And even the blackest souls become uncertainly bright.

โ€œShe would sit among her flowers by the hour, and she seemed to be more with ghosts than with them all, dreaming of the past.โ€

Listen: this world is the lunatic's sphere, Don't always agree it's real, Even with my feet upon it And the postman knowing my door My address is somewhere else.

Do not tell everyone your story. You will only end up feeling more rejected. People cannot give you what you long for in your heart. The more you expect from peopleโ€™s response to your experience of abandonment, the more you will feel exposed to ridicule. You have to close yourself to the outside world so you can enter your own heart and the heart of God through your pain. God will send to you the people with whom you can share your anguish, who can lead you closer to the true source of love.
Henri J.M. Nouwen, The Inner Voice of Love
