Solitude = Listening


 St. Dominic's last way of prayer was walking alone.  It's when you are alone that you pay attention to your surroundings, whether they be of nature or the quiet of a room.  Walking by himself is when the Catholic convert, Roy Shoeman heard God.  He didn't understand at first.  It was only when he literally met Mary, that he was gobsmacked.  Experiences like Roy's is what all parents hope their fallen away children will have.

Anyway, back to St. Dominic, he only thought of God and when he walked alone and he walked all over Europe, is when he conversed with God best.  When you are alone is when you can hear Him.

Not Ship-Shape
