Holy Mount of Athos, Greece

A bit of dried bread
and a cell - a basket full
of prayers and tears.

Here there's room 
for the entire humankind.

A beautiful, holy place...I was reading that only a limited number of visitors are allowed each day to the territory and monasteries. Of course, the visitors can only be men...very interesting and thanks for sharing...hugs, Rhonda
