I Love You, Too...
Wednesday, 27 May 2009

Buses. Subways. Trains. South Plainfield, cathedrals, Museums, Central Park, West Village, Downtown Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Metuchen. From New Jersey to New York and back. There's a story or two to share but I am frazzled right now. After walking-in to this one restaurant in Metuchen, I decided to walk home from the rail station because the day was fine.

Today, at the Cathedral of St. Francis of Assisi,  I was brought to my knees. And today, while strongly holding back my tears, I uttered the words: "I love you, too..."

I have never said those words to Him with so much emotion. I don't know what came to me but saying so made me hold my breath and put my hands over my heart. I say that often and I mean it every time but I can't really remember uttering those words ardently, with emotion too strong. Today when I did, it felt like my heart was on fire. And it's not because I was hurting and maybe not because I was glad of something. It was simply because I have seen things that seem to tell me how much He loves me. Small things that seem to tell me that I am being watched over. That moment, I had a strong impulse to reply, "I love you, too, Lord," and it made me cry. Who am I? Why love me this much?

Little by little, I will share some stories of my (mis)adventures. Stay tuned.

Right now, all I want to do is to let this out. I don't want to forget this-- an occurrence that I wish to experience over and over again.
