' This little point '...

It is a glorious destiny to be a member of the human race, now I realize what we all are .

If only they [people] could all see themselves as they really are, I suppose the big problem would be that we would fall down and worship each other.

At the center of our being is a point of nothingness which is untouched by sin and by illusions, a point of pure truth,

This little point is the pure glory of God in us.

It is in everybody.



-Thomas Merton
