Happy 11-11-11!

It was a beautiful day! I hope everyone was able to take a spiritual moment, in prayer, in meditation, in a group or in solitude, in a city or in the wilderness.

I guess I can say I did all of the above...I practiced my morning meditation/prayer ritual, and yoga.

I attended the Psychotherapy and Faith Conference, which included a very inspiring talk on Spirituality and healing, by Dr. Kenneth Pargament, who was wonderful! I made the wise choice to leave before the talk on Jeffrey Dahmer, since I don't want to know about that sort of evil, and I chose to focus on enlightenment today.

I prayed in the Byzantine Fresco Chapel. Beautiful! Then I visited the Rothko Chapel, just across the street. If you are in Houston, I highly recommend both of these serene chapels.

And even though I was in the fourth largest city in America, I found a place of solitude, surrounded by bamboo hedges, where I could imagine being in a bamboo forest. Bliss!
