Oh Bridget, I wholeheartedly agree! Just reading about your experience lifts my emotions and mood. I can clearly imagine what you saw which ignites memories and a longing to be in the sit spot!! Being in the city I find it difficult to be consistent in the practice but I have experienced how meaningful it is and I want it to become a rhythm in my daily life.

We must hear the earths cries. Can we also hear earths beauty, creativity, songs, art and poetry arising if we sit and listen long enough. This morning I sat at the top of the cherry tree in my garden and watched the sunrise and heard the wren call while it cleaned it’s feathers. This sit spot practice is a practice, like it seems for you sitting and drawing outside is. When we are far from it we can forget what it does for our souls.

“Could I physically hear the earth’s agonizing cries?”
Wow Lorna~
The earth is groaning…no doubt. Yet the stimulation of your awareness in your oneness with creation beautifully led you to know and trust your ‘waiting for this redemption is not passive, but one where you need to generate this love into action and nurture the precious gift of life God has given you.’ I will carry this through the Holy Week ahead.
Silence is our teacher, as you are to me. Thank you for your post.
