"Here?"
"When will it happen?"
"It is happening right now."
"Then why don't I experience it?"
"Because you do not look."
"What shall I look for?"
"Nothing. Just look."
"At what?"
"Anything your eyes light upon."
"Must I look in a special kind of way."
"No. The ordinary way will do."
"But, don't I always look in the ordinary way?"
"No."
"Why ever not?"
"Because to look you must be here. You are mostly somewhere else."
Fr Anthony de Mello, SJ
