Food for the Soul...

As I sit at the back of the temple, 

I hear the chanting on a hot early evening

and I close my eyes for a while.

Concentrating on my breath, my thoughts come and go 

and I realize how blessed I am to be able to hear the chants of the novices and monks dressed in saffron robes in such peaceful and beautiful surroundings.

Smiling inside, I allow the sounds of their voices to penetrate my Being and feed my Soul...
