HOPE is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul,
And sings the tune without the words,
And never stops at all.–Emily Dickinson

God’s laughter
- God’s laughter emanating from the sky
LAUGHTER CAME FROM EVERY BRICK
Just these two words He spoke
changed my life,
“Enjoy Me.”
What a burden I thought I was to carry–
a crucifix, as did He.Love once said to me, “I know a song,
would you like to hear it?”And laughter came from every brick in the street
and from every pore
in the sky.After a night of prayer, He
changed my life when
He sang,“Enjoy me.”
(St. Teresa of Avila, 16th century mystic, saint, and Doctor of the Church)
