Seek the Sacred in the Ordinary
“The great lessons from the true mystics… is that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one’s daily life, in one’s neighbors, friends and family, in one’s back yard.” [Abraham H. Maslow in Religions, Values and Peak-Experiences as quoted in 100 ways to Keep Your Soul Alive #6.
OBSERVATION
Let’s not get down in the weeds here. Perhaps we try too hard to “understand” everything – to have all of the answers – to connect all of the dots. Why not just open our hearts to the many joys around us. They are like seeds that can grow and give meaning to our life.
