“ Get it out. The pain doesn't have as much power when you share it. ”
At both school and at home, I lost myself in books.
~ Daniel D. Maurer
Fiction was a way for me to escape into another world. I would lose myself and all my shame, insecurity, and fear in those books. I would let time slip away in the pages of other worlds. Reading was a life long gift I grew to cherish.
But prayer and meditation aren't only in the realm of religion. I'd say neither is God, for that matter, brother Matt. What it's about is finding a peaceful center, even when we think that life is totally whack!
Spiritual assets allow us to see more clearly, love more deeply, and act more courageously.
