With each new day, our hearts are broken by the news of suffering caused by catastrophic fires, floods, hurricanes, violence, and deaths of friends and strangers both near and afar. Yet deep in our souls, we know that life’s tragedies can also yield hidden gifts of profound healing, renewal, and thriving. Gradually, we discover how catastrophes can even become sources of gratitude. With faith and courage, we learn how to open these gifts, to mend our broken hearts, and to move forward with wise, loving hope, energy, and optimism.

Pilgrimage is a spiritual practice for nearly every major religion of the world. For some pilgrimage means to journey to a place where holiness is apparent, or where some kind of divine and human encounter took place. Some describe the experience as a search for spiritual depth or moral significance, while others search for a path towards freedom. Some pilgrims are directed towards specific destinations, such as a dwelling place of a saint, or a holy place that evokes prayer and reflection. The passage may be symbolic of the journey of a soul to God, and primarily an internal experience of alternative sacred geography. Others describe pilgrimage as a threshold experience that points to a new reality. Pilgrimage is so common to human experience that the practice has recently been proposed as a new Jungian archetype.
