St. Mary's Cathedral is just around the corner from the hotel I stayed in last night in Edinburgh. I popped in briefly last night for a few minutes and invited Mom to go back with me this morning after getting the rental car and getting settled in.
We were able to spend some time strolling and sitting in the quiet and in my opinion was a nice way to start the trip.
We lit a candle and just as we did that the choir started singing. It was truly very cool. If you'd like to hear more around the context of that candle I'd be happy to share if you ask when I see you.
Welcome
Formerly titled "The Traveling Job Coach" and then "The Traveling Athletic Director," this blog is
for me and my memory because it's not very good.
My memory is not very good. See what I mean?
This blog has also morphed into a place for me to share my thoughts on life and how I see the world.
These thoughts often bubble to the surface during my travels.
I don't concern myself with grammar. This is simply a place for me to record my memories,
thoughts and feelings while I travel.
I started this blog before my trip to Europe July 10-24, 2009. Email me at brosefield@gmail.com
whilst I'm traveling or comment on posts here if you see something that
strikes your fancy.
Yes, I used the words whilst and fancy in the same paragraph.
GEES!!! What a spiritual moment!!!
ReplyDeleteRaised a Catholic I went to St. Joseph's with Mom one afternoon to light a candle and pray in the pew and - to this day - I truly believe the statue of The Virgin Mary 'spoke to me' as I knelt before her......it was as if she was reaching out to me and beckoning to me.
Very spiritually moving moment in my life.
One of two.
Thank you, Brian. Thanks for letting me tag along on this awesome journey of yours.
Enjoy your Mom!!
