The Way to Life

See how the Lord in his love shows us the way of life. RB80.Prol. 20

The way of life...the way to life...the secret of a happy fulfilled life.

Seeking life seems to be an age-old quest. There are stories and legends of heroic journeys in search for the key to life--the answer to what gives purpose to one's life. I have been a life-long seeker myself...always searching for that something that would make life complete.

In the time of our desert ancestors, young monastics would travel days to reach an elder who would impart a word to them--some secret piece of wisdom that would carry them for their journey.

Who are our wisdom figures today? What can I do to bring a word of life or encouragement to someone else on the road?
