Catherine McAuley's quote of the day:
"Our mututal respect and charity should be cordial; now cordial signifies something that revives, invigorates and warms, such should be the effects of our love for each other."
WhenI first read this in an earlier time of the day, my first thought was that, yes, it is like a cordial of wine that one might have as one begins an evening meal. It revivies, invigorates and warms, as much as the good conversation of friends.
Today let us look at the cordial moments of our day. When are you revived or warmed? What invigorates you?
Today I will look at the trees outside my window, the people who walk into my life and the events that happen today and reflect on which are cordial. They will have the marks of respect and kindness imprinted on them, I'm sure.
