Lent Lolling

This day was dedicated to lolling. Retreating in the slowing down sense. Being intentional about going slow, so as to not miss any opportunities to hear. Shhhh. 



Yet not shutting out conversation. Birds chattering and singing early this morning.

Conversation with local women who run TyBean, the local espresso shop. 


The rhythmic sounds of waves rolling to shore. 


Conversation through shared prayers on the beach. 

We cannot know whether we love Gof although there may be strong reason for thinking so, but there can be no doubt about whether we love our neighbor or not.  Be sure that, in proportion that you advance in affection for sisters and brothers, you are increasing your love of God.  Teresa of Avila. 

Who is hard to love right now. What would it cost us to love that one?




All contributing to the hush of hearing.
