Himatangi Beach


 Himatangi Beach in winter (June 27 2015)

 It is when I am walking in nature that I can often find the sacred- whether it be at the beach, or in the bush... This extract somehow sums it up.

from Terry Hershey’s The Power of Pause 
A fuller version of this is on the blog by Paul Campbell SJ- as Wisdom Story- 250. 

“Oh, Papa,” the son replied. “There is no need to worry. I go into the woods to pray. It is in the woods that I can talk to God.”
“Oh,” the rabbi said, clearly relieved, “But as the son of a rabbi, you should know that God is the same everywhere.”
“Yes, Papa. I know that God is the same everywhere. But I am not.”
