I was able to witness the Venerable Monks as they walked from Texas to Washington DC, we’d been having bitter cold temps and they were staying in Fredericksburg for the night. They walked in silence, focus and dedication. Their message: PEACE. I was taken back by how fast they walked, especially at the end of their day ( which was over 100 by this day). I was also humbled by how the weather had chapped their faces and their hands. From Texas to Washington DC they’ve carried an example, a reminder that love and peace is ours. I didn’t get too many photos, but I am so glad I got to witness this.
