Merry Christmas 2014!
A Christmas Salutation
There is nothing I can give you which you have not,
But there is much that while I cannot give, you can take.
No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in it today.
Take heaven.
No peace lies in the future which is not hidden in this present instant.
Take peace.
The gloom of the world is but a shadow.
Behind it, yet within our reach, is joy.
Take joy.
And so at this Christmastime,
I greet you, with the prayer that for you,
now and forever, the day breaks
and the shadows flee away.
-Fra Giovanni, 1513
