These sacred places are so important for escaping the noise of the “real” world. THIS is the REAL WORLD.

Dear God – As I leave this overwhelming serenity in deep contemplation, keep reminding me that your arms are around me – G. M. age 97

Working my way through my own spiritual journey—what an amazing retreat for the soul. Thank you for your generosity building and sharing. Feeling the spirit of the God that lives in my soul. I hope to find a way to share the spirituality within, with those searching, as you have shared with me. –MP

Peace, joy, love, forgiveness, patience, gratitude – give these to others and give them to yourself – Bonnie C.

I sit and wonder what it’s like to live your life and love the strife. It’s easy to get angry, hate and blame. So tell me, how does that get tamed? I try and try and try so hard. I scream, I fight, I call for help. But then I realize no one is coming. I’m by myself. -KM
