A Letter to Justin From Ann Rutherford
By: Ann Rutherford
Retreat Participant
Dear Justin:
I had never been to [a Meditation Retreat] before and had no idea what to expect.
Years ago a dear friend abandoned her “path” by joining a group that was dominated by a false prophet! This ‘teacher’ told her what to think in every aspect of her life. I have watched my friend become more and more hollowed out rather than enriched.
You [Justin] on the other hand, sat at the front of the room in silence. You opened the door but it was up to us to walk through it. I left the Retreat on Sunday afternoon with a heightened awareness of what is of importance and what is not. You carry such a treasure. Thank you, for sharing your consciousness with us. You are truly a teacher.
Sincerely,
– Ann Rutherford
