As my lover and I have grown to the beginning of ancient we are learning truths that we have no vocabulary to express. It is as if we are just beginning to see ahead an enormity which clarifies the brevity of our past. It summarizes the past by opening glimpses of the future, underscoring the prologue in the first pages of the eternal epic. We only have brief memories, just twinkling’s over 65 and 70 years. It condenses these experiences into how well we lived lovingly, caringly and arranges our memories into the moments when we learned to be and teach kindness, patience, adventuring, and above all, to hear God, to clearly hear Him to know Him not to respond to Him. And it has something to do with traveling. It is difficult to express advancements of the heart and soul; it is much like seeing an unknown event in the night sky, you think you know you saw it, but you can’t exactly believe or explain what you experienced.
