Descent Into Silence

I feel like a naughty kid as I've sneaked into the "out of bounds" computer booth to write to you all! The silent retreat guests are registering now (they're allowed to talk until dinner) and I've just come off a mammoth shift which started at 4pm on Fri and has been non-stop ever since!!! Am overjoyed that I can finally do my laundry and some clandestine blog updating!

Alas, the computer booth is in the meditation hall (or the room that is being transformed into the meditation hall), so I am likely to be a silent blogger until the June 17 and will be incommunicado. To everyone who's e-mailed me, it's unlikely I'll be able to acknowledge your message until the silence is over : ( My guess is that with all the silence around me, I'll be bursting with things to write!!

One of the departing guests, gave me a beautiful handmade gift today as a thank you (a glass paperweight). Very touched!! I'm really enjoying interacting with the guests and creating a nice space for them. Better sneak out now!!! Lots of love to everyone until i'm next back in cyber land xxxxxxx
