Photo Hunt - Important

Important: The word has no limits! My faith, my family, my husband, my children, and yes, my pets; eating, drinking, exercising; love of country, being a responsible citizen, voting; being kind, loving and merciful.

I chose this little Episcopal church that we saw while in Kaua'i as my photo for this week. It's not my denomination but I loved the style of the building, the palm trees gently swaying above, and the open doors.

The church used to be sacrosanct, a place where one could be safe from their environment and a place of sanctuary - to be able to meditate in peace. The church building has, unfortunately, lost that status, in that we are no longer free from those who would do us ill while within it's structures, but the "Church" that dwells within us is always present, a place of peace, grace, mercy and faith.

That is why I chose it as "important." It is the basis of my being.
