"Adoration is something rooted in our
humanity.
It is what a mother
feels when cradling a new-born child in her arms for the
very first time. It is the amazement that shines in the
deep, black eyes of the Mapuche who, with his ear
pressed close to Mother earth, listens to the awakening
of the life of the whole forest in her maternal womb. It
is awe at the immensity of the sea, the sparkle of snow
capped mountains or the power of the hurricane storm. It
is the wonder that dilates the eyes and heart of a child
captivated by the magic of the adventure of life." |
