Considering that the beautifully inspirational writing of Viktor Frankl was 
made possible by his experiences in the Nazi death camps, there must have 
been some wind of heaven blowing through Auschwitz, even if that heaven was 
Frankl himself.
 When love beckons to you follow him, 
Though his ways are hard and steep. 
And when his wings enfold you yield to him, 
Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you. 
And when he speaks to you believe in him, 
Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the 
garden. 
For even as love crowns you so shall he crucify you. Even as he is for your 
growth so is he for your pruning. 
Even as he ascends to your height and caresses your tenderest branches that 
quiver in the sun, 
So shall he descend to your roots and shake them in their clinging to the 
earth. 
Like sheaves of corn he gathers you unto himself. 
He threshes you to make you naked. 
He sifts you to free you from your husks. 
He grinds you to whiteness. 
He kneads you until you are pliant; 
And then he assigns you to his sacred fire, that you may become sacred 
bread for God's sacred feast. 
-Kahlil Gibran
 
Heaven is not only in the rustle of the winds stirring the fields, it is in 
the threshing and sifting and grinding and kneading.
 
Agape,
