Day 083r: The next Grace-filled Garden … (July 06, 2019)

I continued on steadily despite the sweltering heat and eventually made my way into the small village of Ventosa. There was a city festival going on at the time, and the loud revelry of the same seemed to distract the townsfolk from the opportunity for hospitality that my presence was affording. And yet even though the town’s church was as closed as their awareness, the church garden was as filled with solace as anywhere I had ever been. Though given nothing, I lacked for less, and rested there awhile fully content & grateful …

In each moment of every day, let me resolve to do the following: fear no one, embrace everyone, immerse myself in gratitude, notice the ever-wondrous, champion both justice & compassion, and willingly endure all pain or discomfort. So will conquer the world, and thereby become a powerful ambassador of love.” ~ inspired by Mahatma Gandhi
