Prior to the first exam, I reviewed the four axioms that define a place as sacred. The text describes a sacred place as being a "storied place". This is a very interesting concept and explains how a sacred place gets the title of being of sacred. The first axiom is a sacred place is not choosen, it chooses. This is my personal favorite axiom because it illustrates how a place can take a hold of you. A place can spontaneously draw you in and attract you. A personal example of this was the beach, I was captivated by the beach from the first time I ever went. The beach appealed to me and I fell in love with the culture and lifestyle.
