When we love something, we feel the truth of it, we touch its deeper nature. Our love breaks it open and reveals its secrets. There are many, many things in the world that I have had neither the time nor the ability to love, and so I know little about them. But those things I love, I have come to know. What we choose to love is very important, for what we love leads our eyes, ears, and hearts on a pilgrimage that shapes the texture of our lives. As Jesus reminds us, "Where your treasure is, there will your heart be also."
