A day at the Novitiate is almost gone. When the sunset has come, noises from schools and construction sites subsides; instead, the symphony of the universe starts playing thousands of melodious notes.
In fact, nature still sings, I wonder how many people can enjoy those pure melodies. I suddenly realized that only in true silence, people could be in harmony with nature. As for me, those love songs have connected me with the earth and heaven. The gentle melodies instill in my soul a mysterious sense of purity and peace. After that, I seem to be dissolved into the vast ocean of the “divine sphere”, where I do not have to worry about imperfection, stumbles, self-image or competition. To me, nature is like a mystery that always reveals God’s love including both the ancient and new aspects. And I am – His precious creature also renewed every day by being immersed myself in that immense sea of love !
