As I mentioned in the post, occasionally I didn’t experience anything but most of the time it was a wonderful experience with God. I would love to attend the High Calling Retreat some year too. Maybe we can meet there someday.

In my writers group we talked about our writing journeys and so many of us had one teacher who believed in us and this dream. They really do make a strong difference in students. I hope you do get to walk a labyrinth someday.

I am impressed. I would love to have one closer by so i could go more often. I usually have to wait till on retreat. Yes it does help us connect!

I will have to look around my area at those locations. Thanks for coming by and hope we can connect again soon

My hubby is a believer but wouldn’t try that. He did wait patiently for me as I walked the seaweed one in Scotland. amazing you connected with that young girl. What a gift!

However, oddly enough, when I was in high school, the labyrinth was the first step to a dream of becoming a writer. I had a particularly inspirational English teacher that was generous enough to share one of my essays with the class, and shower me with praise. He made a copy of my essay for himself, saying he would hold onto it for later proof that I was his student. What can you say about a teacher that awesome as to plant that kind of confidence in a troubled kid. I never saw him after I graduated but am grateful to have had him as my teacher, and think of him often. His creative writing assignment that day… What is the shape of life. God Bless Mr. Naquin

Turns out the hospital near me has a beautiful, classical, stone labyrinth. Thanks for sharing, putting you on my favorites list.

When Andre and I were celebrating our 26th wedding aniversary, we went to Hogsback, a beautiful little artist village nestled in the Maluti Mountains. There we walked a labarynth on the edge of the plateau! I met a sweet little girl there who was also walking the labarynth with her mom. She and I immediately clicked and we made a game out of the whole experience. But to me, this little one of whom I had the honor of sharing her life for a little while, was spiritual to me too. A gift from Pappa’s hand.
Blessings
Mia
