Time and time again ...

     Having just spent a week in one of my most favorite places on earth, I am reminded of the breadth of time and depth of inner space. I can forget about that when my world becomes compressed into the quotidian demands of a busy life.

  I'm struck by the great fortune of my life to be able to spend a week being still, yet moving; being silent, yet speaking; being .... really just being ... and in that place finding the grace and abundance of love that is.

      I'm no poet.  I can't express the beauty and goodness that fills me when I'm there.
It certainly is inspiring to be able to participate in the services.  I am humbled by the welcoming I get, and the acceptance of my presence. 

 But it is more than that.  I also feel the presence of God in the world at large.

 I'm not sure I can blog about it.  But I just needed to take note of the moment.

  1. You blogged about it. Your pictures spoke and filled in the spaces which you could not write about.

    You truly are fortunate to be able to experience this space of time in silence.

    Peace.
