The EYES of the Master
A small anecdote :
I had just left the seminary to do a noviciate in a convent hospital, where mental patients were cared for. Here, a sick man who had lost his memory years ago, and could no longer speak, had (no-one knew how) climbed a staircase, and with his head and reason lost in the clouds, suddenly missed one step and fell like a clash of thunder to the bottom of the wooden staircase, banging himself on the head.
Male nurses hurried towards him, and suddenly the sick man got up, sat on a chair and said, while watching the lines of patients' beds :
" But what am I doing here ? "
How many times do we wake up in our beds, coming out of our dreams and we ask this same question?
Maybe we too can change something that will bring us closer to our real identity ? Maybe something small, a tiny hole in our shell, an opening towards another world, helping us to forget our material connection to this earth, and reminding us that one day we will recover our wings ?
