The Only Limits are Those of Vision

"The only limits are, as always, those of vision."  James Broughton

This was my quote on my daily calendar yesterday and it gave me pause to think.  I visited the optometrist yesterday who performed tests and pronounced my eyes as very healthy.  Then why is my vision so bad?  Of course the physical explanation is the curvature of my cornea.  But it also reflects a   limit to my vision.  I am in a place in my life where I want to fulfill my hearts desire, but I can't read the eye chart without help.

Todays quote is "To measure the man measure his heart."  Malcom Forbes.  I know what is my hearts desire.  To create and process symbols and for others to see the meaning.   In February I attended a wonderful ACTS (Adoration Community Theology Service) retreat put on the Catholic Church.  Yesterday my optometrist happened to be a fellow ACTS participant and  I was wearing the crucifix gifted to me by the women at the retreat.  What is God's message is this?  Am I called to the Catholic Church and this group of women at Our Lady of Providence?  Or does my heart desire reside in a Christmas House in Illinois?  Or somehow both?  This is where I ask for God's help.  I ask that God help so that I make my decisions based on my heart and not by reason.
