Monday
“Put
your heart, mind and soul into even your smallest acts. This is the
secret of success.” Swami Sivananda
It's
Monday morning; hi-ho, hi-ho, it's off to work we go! Coffee cup in
hand, regretting yesterday's late night, yearning for just one more
day to spend outside in this fabulous springtime, we are up and out.
How can we possibly make this day successful?
How
about we invest it with mystery. From the amazing machine we humans
have created to get us to work, to the incredible design of our roads
and intersections, everything around us is a miracle of ingenuity. We
can notice the budding trees, the mating-crazy birds, the children on
their way to school, the devoted moms in the carpool line, and
appreciate the thriving, growing world in which we live. We can
listen to music, sip our dark, rich coffee and give thanks for the
hands that picked and roasted the beans to make it. We can, while
we're at it, give thanks for the life within us, and the fact that we
have work enough to feed our families.
In
the words of John Hagee: “Gather all your resources, rally all your
faculties, marshal all your energies, focus all your capacities upon
mastery of at least one field of endeavor.” Do your best. Put soul
into your work, and you will return home tonight sated, satisfied
and pleasantly tired.
In
the Spirit,
Jane
