Quotable // from Thomas Merton

Quotable // from Thomas Merton

Posted on July 15, 2017 by Kendra Jernejcic • 0 Comments

“The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. If in loving them we do not love what they are, but only their potential likeness to ourselves, then we do not love them: we only love the reflection of ourselves we find in them.” ~ Thomas Merton
