Two "Quiet" Blogs

I've discovered two "quiet" blogs.  Both blogs are meditative and thought provoking.  Neither blog has a comment section.  Both blogs encourage you to email the authors with feedback. 

A Circle of Quiet combines photography, recipes, poetry, quotes, books, and posts about family and friends.  You gets the feeling that you are sitting down to tea with a close confidant.

Holy Experience is a truly transcendent encounter. Like A Circle of Quiet, it has no comment section, but you may email the author, Ann Voskamp, with your observations.  The blog's music, The Gift, by David Nevue, is one part of the whole, rejuvinating atmosphere that is this blog.

The holy experience starts with the header.  An orange sunset takes you into a quietly dark background full of poetic posts, beautiful pictures and deeply thought-provoking essays.  It is truly a blog like no other and Ann Voskamp is extremely talented at what she does.


Stop by both blogs for a bit of tranquility.

Very nice blogs. The 2nd one lowered my blood pressure as soon as I clicked on it. Everything about it is tranquil

Yeah, I agree. Even the design is tranquil.

Dymphna's favorite quotes


"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark
