Dear Veronica, my dear children,
Every life is a wonderful story worthy of being told. Every life is a work of art, and if it does not seem so, perhaps it is only necessary to illuminate the room that contains it. The secret is never to lose faith, to have confidence in God’s plan for us, revealed in the signs with which he shows us the way. If you learn to listen, you will find that each life speaks to us of love. Because love is the way to everything, the engine of the world. Love is the secret energy behind every note I sing And never forget that there’s no such thing as happenstance. That is an illusion, lawless and arrogant men invented so that they could sacrifice the truth of our world to the laws of reason.
Andrea Bocelli, Music of Silence
