Samantha Rogers- Landscapes of the Sacred #2

"Our attachment to any place arises from what we experienced there and, subsequently , from what we retain of it in our memories." When I first read this line I didn't think much of it. After thinking about it I realized how true it was. When we become attached to a place it is because something sacred or spiritual happened there. We wouldn't just become attached it we didnt have a feeling about the place. Our memories and thoughts bring us back to that place and make it sacred and meaningful to us. I have been to places where nothing really made it special except for the feeling that I got when I was there. It became a sacred place to me because of what I experienced.
