Staying at a hotel just off the plaza made it possible to continue the walking I have been committed to doing.
A brisk walk early this morning led to a labyrinth at St. Francis Cathedral. It was accessed by slipping under yellow police tape, as the decorations for the cathedral were to be hung today and all entrances to the cathedral plaza were taped off.
Museums added to the experience of the day. O'Keeffe and her camping trips; The St. John Illuminated Bible, first envisioned by the artist while at Ghost Ranch some years ago. Both Gobsmacking experiences!
In my Advent reading for today, we are reminded that in his letter to the Thessalonians, Paul says our lives are to be lived quietly, yet do more and more for those God invites us to serve. We are to be willing to use our hands, our hearts, our souls on behalf of others.
I have lived pretty quietly these past nine days, and in that time I have again and again seen ways I might serve others.
Tonight a last meal of blue corn enchiladas, followed by a stroll in this city different.
