Hospitality

The root word for hospitality is the same as hospital. Hospitality is simply taking care of real needs. The guests who come to the inn recently have had a greater need for rest and stress relief than I remember anytime in the past.
I see more clearly the connection between the words as our guests come to be
treated with attention and care. As preassure increases, those wounded by the outside world are seeking refuge;a place of safety and peace. Sometimes as I relate to our guests I feel like Doctor Paul!
