Once again I have emerged from the long unlighted struggle, working my way through, not knowing what it was I was resolving—for me the goal is often reached before I have defined it—to come upon my deepest self, so filled with the burning beauty of life that salty joy runs down my cheeks, and I know, once again, that I can accept this gift, this reality, this life of mine, only if I set down my love of it to share with others: as hope for the weary, as faith for the unyielding, as love made eternal because I cannot let it die with me, scattered effortlessly on the wind of each day’s allotted time.
— Rosa Burke Perez, February 25, 1972

 

“I know how to solve the problem of war,” said the Child.
“Just make the whole world one big country!”

And God said,
“There is but One Country; it includes all land.
There is but One Race, and it is human.
There is but One Language; it speaks the truth.
There is but One Faith, and it believes in love.”

“This is Heaven,” said the Child.
How do children recognize their turf?
“Because if I were going to die and go to Heaven,” said the Child,
“I’d want it to be this Earth.
Oh, not what humans have done to it,
but the way this Earth really is.
It’s so beautiful!
It’s so clear that Paradise is on Earth.”

And God said,
“Let there be Paradise, and let it be on Earth.
And on Earth let there be four seasons:
Winter, the Season of Faith—and let its symbol be the Seed;
Spring, the Season of Promise—and let its symbol be the Bud;
Summer, the Season of Revelation—and let its symbol be the Blossom;
Autumn, the Season of Fulfillment—and let its symbol be the Fruit.
And let the Fruit contain the Seed.”
