On a tense summer afternoon,
just before the first rainfall of May
fallen petals dance with wilted leaves
in the forboding cool breeze.
They weave a scene of beauty
that leaves a serene memory
stronger than the storm's anger
and survives even after
the last raindrops fall
and the leaves and flowers are no more.

"Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way. What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, what you read, what you know, what breaks your heart, & what amazes you with joy & gratitude. Fall in love, stay in love & it will decide everything." -Pedro Arrupe, SJ
