It is said that the true nature of being is veiled.

I used to find notes left in the collection basket, beautiful notes about my homilies and aboutthe writer's thoughts on the daily scriptural readings.

The person who penned the notes wouldadd reflections to my thoughts and would always include some quotes from poets and mysticshe or she had read and remembered and loved.
寫這些短文的人不僅對(duì)我的一些觀點(diǎn)加以反思，同時(shí)還會(huì)引用一些他/她曾經(jīng)讀過的，令他/她難忘又喜愛的詩人或者神秘主義者的話。
