I have just returned from a three day retreat at St. Edmunds Center on Enders Island in Mystic, CT. It was truly a wonderful restful and relaxing way to spend a weekend. The solitude and tranquility of the sun the surf and the spirit was a short glimpse of Nirvana. Even though this Catholic place put it's emphasis on the Catholic faith it was a place where all people of all faiths or non beliefs can come and be one with the universe. I was and am grateful for this experience and Just for today
I will not Worry
I will be Happy
I will be Honest
I will Honor All
I will be Grateful
Welcome back Dave, I'm pleased you had a restful time.
ReplyDeleteWOW...sounds wonderful, Dave!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back!
oooo...Mystic, Ct - I've never been, but from what I've seen in photographs, it looks like a place that I would really enjoy.
Don't you feel great when you return from a retreat? There's a place in Aston,PA that is also based on the Catholic faith (but open to all faiths). It's run by Franciscan nuns - lovely place!
Hello Dave,
ReplyDeleteI love your blog. It sounds as if you had a very nice and relaxing time while on retreat.
I love your poem too. How true this affirmation is.
Have a great day!
Lydia
