Time zoomed so fast that the next thing I noticed were the Christmas decorations on display for sale.
Anyway, for this very short semestral break, I allotted myself time for a 5-day Silent Retreat.
The unnecessary stress that our everyday life is causing, everyone deserves to just get a break and retreat from all of the noise.
Silent retreats give us time to let go of everything we are used to having everyday. We let go of our phones, access to social networking sites, human interactions, and even our usual selves.
These silent moments give us more time to get in touch with ourselves and with our God. More importantly, these moments remind us what really matters in life... forgiveness, peace of mind, love, patience, and eternal happiness.
In Philippines, there are many retreat houses located in Tagaytay and Baguio. But one doesn't have to go too far if you are in living in Metro Manila. In Quezon City, I highly recommend the Cenacle Sisters Retreat Center in Varsity Hills, Quezon City.
Here's their website:
