Before leaving for retreat (June 3-11) I was cleaning out my inbox and found this email sent 11 years ago by Janet Gildea, S.C., dear mentor, sister and friend who passed away last April 4th. I am grateful for Janet's reminder and am carrying this to be the theme of my retreat this year.




"In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went to a deserted place, and there he prayed." Mark 1: 35


"If you love to listen, you will gain knowledge and, if you pay attention, you will become wise." Sirach 6:33


"When you lose touch with inner stillness, you lose touch with yourself. When you lose touch with yourself, you lose yourself in the world." - Eckhart Tolle



"Look at a tree, a flower, a plant. Let your awareness rest upon it, How still they are, how deeply rooted in Being. Allow nature to teach you stillness." - Eckhart Tolle



"Listen to silence. It has so much to say." - Rumi


"Saints ripen in the silence." - Gregory Bernanos



Pray for me as I pray for you. - Romina
