at peace.

[a man knows when he has found his vocation when he stops thinking about how to live and begins to live... when we are not living up to our true vocation, thought deadens our life, or gives in to life so that our life drowns out our thinking and stifles the voice of our conscience. when we find our vocation - thought and life are one.

suppose one has found completeness in his true vocation. how everything is in unity, in order, at peace. now work no longer interferes with prayer and prayer with work. now contemplation no longer needs to be a special "state" that removes one frmo the ordinary things going on around him for God penetrates all. one does not have to think of giving an account of oneself to anyone but Him.] -tm
