Many people in the United States do not have sacred places. Sacred places are spaces with deep spiritual meaning that are meant to be respected and protected.  Often these places are sacred to a group of people, not just to an individual.  Mecca is a sacred place for Muslims.  The Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe is a sacred place for Mexican Catholics.  Even if they don't have a sacred place, many people do have places that are special or uniquely meaningful in their own lives. Describe a place that is meaningful for you. If you have a sacred place, tell about that place.  If you don't have a sacred place, tell about a special place.  Tell your own story about the sacred place/special place. What is the place and why is it meaningful?  Who was involved or what happened there?  What lessons do you carry with you that are connected to this place?
