I was sad one day and went for a walk; I sat in a field. A rabbit noticed my condition and came near. It often does not take more than that to help at times - to just be close to creatures who are so full of knowing, so full of love that they don’t - chat, they just gaze with their marvelous understanding. ~ St. John of the Cross from Love Poems from God, translations by Daniel Ladinsky.
