REFLECTION QUESTIONNature Enjoy the Sunrise/SunsetFather Thomas Berry says, "... our primary purpose is celebration. Celebration of the dawn and the sunset and the different seasons of the year is a religious ritual, a way in which humans can establish their integral relationship with the universe, with the planet Earth." What is your response to Berry's assertion?
Cindy Sheehy 10/13/2020 3:03 PMThe palette at dawn and dusk are a great reminder of the persistence of time. One must slow down to observe how colors seamlessly fade into each another until they are swallowed but the light of day or dark of night. Please stop and enjoy these fleeting moments to recharge mind, body and soul. -
