As I mentioned in my cottagebythesea blog, posting is a challenge these days. For one thing, I’m with family so there is not much time to write, and certainly not about silence, solitude or simplicity. The internet is very slow in our apartment, so offering a slide show takes more time than I have.
Each morning I have left our apartment at 6:30 to walk around the city and stop at one of my favorite churches for prayer. The Badia, just up the street, is a favorite because it is completely quiet unless the nuns and monks are singing. As I walk in I take a little piece of paper with a Biblical saying printed in Italian and English from a box on a table. Here’s the one for today.
We are well aware that we have passed over from death to life because we love our brothers. Whoever does not love, remains in death.
1 John 3:14
