Falling in Love

Marc Chagall "Windows"

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 do with your evenings,

how you spend your weekends,

what you read, who you know,

what breaks your heart,

and what amazes you with

joy and gratitude.

Fall in love, stay in love,

and it will decide everything.

~ By Pedro Arrupe (1907-1991), a Basque priest, who was living near Hiroshima in 1945 and led a team to take care of sick and dying.
