Are you now more aware of.....
Where
now do you find sources for hope and courage ?
Do
you find evidence of grace, beauty, mystery among the ordinary?
Most
people, truth be told, research shows, have had some experience of unexpected
grace, or a mystical experience, however brief. Was this for you at a
particular time?

out to write your own spiritual memoir is, itself, a spiritual adventure into
your own labyrinth. –Paschal Baute
