Touching the stone
]
going down the stair to the grotto
The entrance to the Cave where millions have worshipped the birth of Christ is down a narrow starway. As sacred as the space is one needs to be fairly fit to get up and down all the entrances and exits.
Touching the stone that covers the birth place made real the fact a woman gave birth in this place to the Son of God. This humble space has not frills or comfort, just birth in its raw state.
Returning under the watch tower in the wall remids me of the freedom we have to go to and fro without thinking.
