I love visiting Monasteries and churches it makes me happy. When I was in Iligan working (around 90's) me and my friends used to visit and do our retreat in Bukidnon. We used to visit Monastery of the Transfiguration and do our weekend retreat there. After I resigned from worked I already don't have time to visit any monasteries and do retreats. And so when I found out that we have Monasteries around I couldn't keep myself from looking at there website and reading there news from time to time.
Yesterday was the time my wish was granted. We were at the parking lot hubby noticed me I was already smiling and when I got out from the car I was jumping up and down I couldn't believe I was there!! I was thanking God for everything I was just so happy!
Understandable lang na matuwa ka at mag jump nung makita mong monastery sa lugar ninyo dahil matagal mo nang namiss ang mga ito. Speaks so much of your spiritual side. Siyempre at peace ka at kalmante pag nasa loob ng isang monasteryo o kaya'y nagre retreat. Feeling mo kasama mo si God. May you find spiritual peace and contentment in the place where you are residing right now. Thanks for your post. God bless you always.
