"Being still with ourselves is a skill we all need to practice if we are ever to learn to be still in the presence of God."

I love this... Yes, solitude is a skill we need to practice... set aside time for it, keep at it again and again, know that growth may be slow but it will get easier over time.

As I set here in solitude, watching raindrops hit the windows, hearing no sound, I am grateful for this moment of peace before the commotion of the day. “Solitude is the place of encounter.” Thank you!
