Every now and then we would be forced into what they called a retreat for one or two days. It meant no classes, no speaking, just permission to wander in the gardens in contemplation ... and they probably expected prayer too.Penny Berenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15806619078160825540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-639265697684362917.post-42204122411829629462011-03-15T20:49:43.118-03:002011-03-15T20:49:43.118-03:00Wendell Berry is one of my favorites...a voice of ...Wendell Berry is one of my favorites...a voice of reason in a very unreasonable world.

I also love standing outside at night, looking above at the miracle of the stars and a bright moon. It 'puts me in my place' which is very, very small!Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999711983585051357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-639265697684362917.post-41389621676709525842011-03-15T10:27:42.308-03:002011-03-15T10:27:42.308-03:00YES!

Initially I think..awesome silence. Then, I REALLY listen. Why isn't the night quiet as it was when I was young. The distant sound of traffic, the train going down the nearby track, a siren in the distance. I long for the quiet night when you could only hear the crickets and frogs....Carol- Beads and Birdshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11062821517519300477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-639265697684362917.post-33318893017979756722011-03-15T06:19:05.573-03:002011-03-15T06:19:05.573-03:00silently i concur,
