The mysticism of everyday life

"The mysticism of everyday is the deepest mysticism of all. (...) Breathe in gratitude and compassion for yourself; breathe out of love and compassion for your coworkers, friends, family members. (...) Your pause may be stretch or sitting quietly and remembering your name. Ask yourself: is it possible to be less busy and still productive? Is it possible to look at work as ministry rather than just a means of employment?"
Judith Valente, Atchinson Blue, quoting Martina Wiedecker's Seven Sacred Pauses
