Hi! Just in case you missed last weeks post in SoCal Part 1 this will help you get caught up on my recent travels.
I decided to begin today’s post with a question. since I don’t know where else to begin
What direction do you want to go this year?
Have you given this any thought?
Just recently I attended a Women’s Retreat read more finishing up a visit to SoCal
and so naturally I’m in a contemplative state of mind.
It’s a good thing though. Very good.
There are several reasons why I return to this retreat house each year.
The most obvious one is I return so that I can turn away from the world for a weekend.
I find that going to a place where there’s no nightly news, or all the other outside influences
I begin to hear & experience a deeper sense of life within.
I am able to take a deeper look at this journey I’m on.
The weekend connects me to myself again.
I find that when the noise from outside is silenced, another voice speaks louder.
I begin to hear and see a clearer path.
And that’s very good.
Happy February!
Thanks for sharing your travels and the invitation to reflect on our lives!
Hi Joe! You are very welcome☺
Love this post about searching within your self… I think it is a good way to start the new year… and plot out the path one would like to take
Hi Jane! So nice to see you today & thank you for your kind comments. Have a great week☺
I agree that it’s a good idea to get away from our daily lives, find peace and quiet so that we can listen to our souls as they settle down. I take my dog and drive into the country to walk on a quiet road for an hour or so…it is my escape…or is it? Perhaps it is my real existence and connection to the earth. I hope your journey has brought you some sense of peace… :0)
Hi Jenny! I am so lucky to live on this beautiful coast where I can walk for miles at a time. So peaceful & beautiful right in my backyard. The retreat is very special for me too. This was my 14th year attending, and I’m glad I was able to. Sounds like you have a good quiet method also.
