Living Simply
Tuesday, May 14, 2023 ~ 9:00 to 3:00
$65
Living Simply means allowing the ordinary things in our everyday lives to teach us and inspire us. In fact, being human, we often long for something more transcendent than the ordinary, the simple, the everyday... but then, we often miss that which is "extraordinary" in our simple everyday lives.
We will contemplate a few very ordinary things a door, a window, a shawl, a clothspin. By reflecting on these simple things and by sharing our reflections, we will have an opportunity to experience and learn the wisdom of simple things.
