Rethinking our lives
In this time of crisis is allowing the community to also rethink our own lives and how we live out our community values as monks. It is making us more aware of our connection with the world, and how we need to connect through prayer and to be available to those we know and love who live near us.
Everything in this world is fragile, can easily break and die. As we are seeing now with the whole world seeming to stop. Sports canceled, restaurants closing, empty highways during rush hour, this is making us think about what is really important in our lives.
Perhaps it is a fearful thing to be 'forced' into this position, yet, this seems the way we grow as individuals, societies, and yes because the world is now so small, as a world.
So do not be afraid at this time to look honestly on life, and see what is actually making for misery, isolation, and addiction.--Br.MD
