sacred spaces

Where do you find the sacred in your life?
I find it in all wild spaces. I believe that everything that is a creation of God is sacred and should be regarded and treated as such. I have always found solace in the woods, but this is more difficult for me now that I live in Miami. If I am away from them too long, I can begin to feel broken. Sometimes when I am seeking peace I can find it simply lying on the campus green in the sunshine, but if I have a more desperate need I go to the ocean to find it. The vastness of the sea creates a great calming presence, and I feel drawn to allow my problems and stress to float out with the tide. And there is nothing like the wind off the sea for cleansing the soul.
