Day 072q: Truly present in Pimbo … (June 25, 2019)

Despite my compatriots’ somewhat fervent desire to head immediately to the local hostel, I chose instead to enter the local church to pay an appropriate homage to the day – to its length, to its depth, to its gifts of wonder & peace, and to its apparent promise for a Walk for Love that will indeed flow onward …

Gratitude becomes truly spiritual – a spiritual virtue and a spiritual emotion – whenever we are deeply moved in our response to our surroundings by a God-centered view of our living; whenever we awaken enough to see that everything around us is gift and recipient and giver combined … When your heart’s gratitude comes to the fore in this way, when you literally become all gratitude, then gratitude is like a flowing river, an effortless flow of conscious grace.” ~ inspired by Ray A. & Sri Chinmoy
