So I have recently discovered Henri Nouwen's book Reaching Out on my bookshelf and decided to pick it up.
He blew my mind.
This is an amazing statement that is just in the introduction.
"During our life we become more aware not only of our crying lonliness but also of our real desire for a solitude of the heart; we come to the painful realization not only of our cruel hostilities but also our hope to recieve our fellow humans with unconditional hospitality; and underneath all of this we discover not onlyl the endless illusions which make us act as if we are masters of our fate but also the precarious gift of prayer hidden in the depth of our innermost self."
I actually read the first chapter as well and encourage everyone to pick this book up.
