Retreat Reflections

“Live a life of love” was the theme for this year’s retreat and I really was excited being part of that event. I had so many expectations, hopes and questions were raised in my mind that was somehow answered.

I loved the ambience; the freshness of air, the landscape, the peacefulness… away from civilization – an ideal spot to internalize and meditate the relationship we have with our Creator.

The evening activity was the most touching part of the program. I never expected seeing my classmates to burst out and put their armors down. Everyone became very transparent during that night. Sharing our life stories, the joys, heartaches and burdens we’ve been through. After that, we were able to understand one another and became more compassionate to one’s feeling that would lead us to be more mature spiritually, mentally and socially.
