After the sad news from Japan and Libya this morning, we all need some peaceful images. The nave of the Washington National Cathedral is one of my favorite places to sit and be quiet. Filtered by such beautiful stained glass windows, distilled daylight fills the open space and envelops visitors with peace and calm. While I don't believe that connecting to a higher power requires a structure, such as a cathedral, I do understand how such artistry and majesty can inspire spiritual contemplation.
