We must discover that deep within ourselves there is a voice of love which is the center of our humanity.
Our culture today fills us with a cloud of suspicion that surrounds the
human heart. We grow accustomed to thinking of ourselves as a jumble of
passions, selfishness, and violence that lead us to doubt and to fear
going inside ourselves. We must discover that deep within ourselves
there is a voice of love which is the center of our humanity. This is
what the Bible means when it says we are the image and likeness of the
Creator. We have problems; we are not the problems. We have to learn
the difficult discipline of visualizing our conflicts, of setting them
before ourselves so we can talk with them and overcome them. It is not
enough to walk further (Ultreia) and higher (e Sus eia); you must also
walk further inside. Look at your own steps as you did on the Camino
and trust them. Step by step you will go far.
