"84.
Our insistence that each human being is an image of God should not make
us overlook the fact that each creature has its own purpose. None is
superfluous. The entire material universe speaks of God's love, his
boundless affection for us. Soil, water, mountains: everything is, as it
were, a caress of God. The history of our friendship with God is always
linked to particular places which take on an intensely personal
meaning; we all remember places, and revisiting those memories does us
much good. Anyone who has grown up in the hills or used to sit by the
spring to drink, or played outdoors in the neighbourhood square; going
back to these places is a chance to recover something of their true
selves."
