There are no ordinary people.*
C. S. Lewis
All holiness is about learning to hear the voice of your own soul. It is always there and the more deeply you listen, the greater the surprise, and discoveries that will unfold. To enter into the gentleness of your own soul changes the tone and quality of your life.**
John O’Donohue
I hope you haven’t made up your mind yet.
I hope you’re still exploring.
Everyone is more than they are today.
More than they are in this moment.
What if holiness is a human word?
And, when we listen to our souls, we are being holy?
And, when we meet the soul of another, we are being holy?–
A person isn’t this or that but a multiplicity?
To be respected– which is to suspend judgement.
For you to be more who you are, and, if I may, me too.
What if we only need to behave in this way to begin?
Judging short-circuits sensing.^
