Today, while pondering over the Transfiguration, we can sense man's situation in Heaven. It is wonderful to see that, only by looking at the body of Christ in a glorious mode, Peter feels fully happy: he does not miss anything else.

“Let us put up three shelters, one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah”. Peter’s reaction shows the truest dynamism of love: he thinks no more of his own comfort; he wants to save that level of deep joy, by seeking the good of others. It is the clearest manifestation of true love: I am happy because I make you happy; I am happy by offering myself to your happiness. Simon, when seeing Moses and Elijah, not only accepts them instantly, but also loves them immediately (he thinks of putting up a shelter for each one of them).

—St. Peter, Pope (the first one of the Church), but also a fisherman, expresses his love in a simple way; St. Teresa of Jesus, nun, but Doctor (of the Church) expressed the logic of love in a profound way: “The contentment of pleasing the other exceeds my own contentment”.
