"Black and orange butterfly--
Flying joyously.
Wings like a nun's hands:
First folded in prayer,
Then open in offering."
I was at Mass once where the priest quoted George Harrison: "Everything can wait but the search for God." Though I've seldom thought of it this way, I'll take this now as a reminder to look for the innocence in everyone. If I am to show mercy, as these times and their events demand, then I must learn to see with the eyes of the One who made me, to hear with His ears and feel with His heart. There is nothing better or greater to do anytime, but especially now.
