We have set sail....

Are you finding it hard to "shelter in place"? Here is something to help you:


And the people stayed home. And read books, and listened, and rested and exercised, and made art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, 
and were still. And listened more deeply. Some meditated, some prayed, 
some danced. Some met their shadows. And the people began to think 
differently. And the people healed. And in the absence of people living in 
ignorant, dangerous, mindless, and heartless ways, the earth began to heal.
And when the danger passed, and the people joined together again,
they grieved their losses, and made new choices, and dreamed new images,
and created new ways to live and heal the earth fully,
and they had been healed.”      Kitty O’Meara
We are called to create silence and this forced staying at home helps us to find time for quiet and prayer, if we are creative. I imagine it is difficult with young children, but not impossible. They need some quiet time, too.
