I have been in New York just five months but I have already had an
emotional attachment to this city. This January I was in Manhattan and was met
again with simple things like the simple smiling of people and that was
wonderful. In my time at Columbia University I had taken the road to learn
about this place by luck with no program and no information. The magical
buildings with incredible spiritual aura that was written by Pro Ecclesia Dei.
I stumbled into the library with great esthetic; it was a blessing and I had a
rare sensation of gentleness. I said hello to Homer, Aristotle, Plato and
Cicero. I sat down in the corner near the entry and for hours I had
conversation with the statute of Athena; this atmosphere moved me so much. My
broken health, my broken life and broken career, there were all the broken
pieces of my life - like a prayer for new life in the new city, in New York
City.
