I saw a crow this morning, perched on a roof. Then I saw a seagull walking by.

In the words of Saint Francis:

Dixit Dominus Iesus discipulis suis, “Ego sum via, veritas et vita...”

“The Lord Jesus said to His disciples, “I am the way, truth and life...”

Driving through the streets, I reflected on these words. The joy I feel for the Lord was streaming down my faces again. I saw a seagull turning in the air, before pale blue sky and feathered cloud. He was perfect. Surely, He turns.

Have you read "Jonathan Livingston Seagull?" You might enjoy it.

No Carson, I have not. It looks wonderful, though.

Love and Light

Funny - I was just telling a friend about that book and searching for my copy to lend it to him.

Dear Anima,

that is so funny - your description immediately made me think of "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" and I was going to say that, then I scrolled down and saw Carson's answer! You should read that book, I'm sure you would enjoy it!

thanks for sharing. St. Francis is one of my favorite saints.
