A day at the Mill.--How one thing can contain everything.--Of books and libraries.--The missing brick.--The prayer that I forgot.--Transitory Glory.--The second chance.--In the blue mountains.--God's signs.--The third Passion.
Paulo find transcendence in everyday occurrences. Like the toast that fell the right side up; or the man who was discovered in his pajamas, a skeleton twenty years dead and missed by no one; or an ordinary pencil, symbolic of life's trials and triumphs; or the necessity of remaining open to love, even if other try to hurt you.
