"Now, as I am leaving, there is so much more love in my heart than when I arrived.
Over these two weeks, I have taken remarkable steps towards in meditation. I have received wisdom from wise spiritual teachers, listened to life stories and life philosophies, met old friends, made new friends, gained strength from this beautiful nature, felt compassion, community spirit, friendship, and been nourished by delicious and beautiful food. And much more.
And all these gifts in just two weeks. My heart is full. It is singing.
My faith has grown stronger, and I am ready to meet the world outside Bonnevaux with a much more peaceful mind. My work place will welcome back a colleague whose faith is stronger and who wants to serve the community even more wholeheartedly.
I am so grateful. I thank God that Bonnevaux is part of my life, and I thank all of you who make this place what it is."
