    Labyrinths in the Snow

    So, yesterday I wanted to walk a labyrinth. I was feeling cabin fever, on vacation yet stuck in my house on these cold days. I didn’t want to drive several hours to find one I hadn’t walked yet, so I decided to go to one of my favorites, the labyrinth at the Sisters of Christian…

    Walking Labyrinths in Community

    When I walk labyrinths, I usually prefer to do it alone. It’s a private, individual experience for me. Just me and the labyrinth. And God. And my shadow side. But no other people.
