I salute you!

 

There is nothing I can give you that you have not.

But there is much that, while I cannot give, you can take.

 

No heaven can come to us unless our hearts find rest in today.

Take heaven.

 

No peace lies in the future that is not hidden in this present instant.

Take peace.

 

The gloom of the world is but a shadow.

Behind it, yet within our reach, is joy.

Take joy.

 

And so, at this time, I greet you, not quite as the world sends greetings,

but with profound esteem and with the prayer that for you, now and forever,

the day breaks and shadows flee away.

 

 

Fra Giovanni to a friend

Christmas, 1513
