Ordinary life, our earthly existence, is often dull. Romance is exciting. Our moments of romance are those when a little bit of heaven seems, thank God, to impinge, to intrude upon our daily lives. I learn for such moments. It is because I yearn for them so much that I generally feel this earth is not my home. The yearning is particularly intense when I am bored for any length of time. I want to go home. Heaven is the home of God. For years I have known that my only real romance is with God. I want to be with God. I want to be in his or her arms where I belong, and I hope I shall be when I die. But I am not ready to go home yet, and God does not come to me often. Certainly never on demand. She has Her own schedule. Her timing is not my timing, and I must content myself with that. I am not so good at being content, however, that I do not look forward to substitutes, even if they be but shadows of the real thing...
