Everyday I ask the loving voice of wisdom, which dwells in our hearts and in this world: “What would you have me know today?” And then I listen. This is what I heard one day, not long ago…

From elsewhere:

“Now we know what is trivia and what is real.” (Terry & Renny Russell, On the Loose)

From my heart:

It might take you a while to discern between the two, beloved.
And it won’t come without mistaking one for the other on more than one occasion.
And then—even after knowing the difference—mistaking them still from time to time.

It might take a while to discern between trivia and what is real.
Especially when it comes to love, to sex, to religion, to family, to faith; to any good means of occupying your time.

But in time, gradually—you might even say progressively—when you’re willing and heeding—then you will see what is real.

You’ll see it. You’ll experience it. And you’ll know it.
Like an old friend. Like a child of your own.
