Conception has a number of classroom buildings, a gymnasium, cafeteria, dormitories and a basilica. We had some free time to write so I took my computer into the basilica to write.
It was cool and calm and quiet and I felt enough calm and enough peace that I was able to write a bit. When I exited the basilica, I had the first several pages of New Hometown.
The Abbey as it appears early in the morning before the humidity and heat overtake north Missouri. Sometimes, all we can hope for is enough. Enough peace. Enough love. Enough good. Enough time. Here's hoping for you today, that you have enough of what you need.

Wow! Those pictures are so amazing!! Architecture in Catholic churches are so intricate and beautiful; no wonder one finds tranquility in them. I'm not a devout person but even I, in times of need or extreme writers block, will turn to a place like "the basilica" mentioned above to think.
Be it from a divinity, or a psycosomatic release of progesterone, some places in this world clear our minds, allotting us a time to think. When enough time is spent there, we can all come out a new person. Making good.
