“The mystical possibilities of every moment are revealed to us in our intentional pauses… If we practice living mindfully, we slowly begin to see the holiness of so many things that remain hidden when we choose to rush through the hours, striking tasks from the list of things we must accomplish before day’s end. It will be a happy moment when we remember to add the wise act of pausing to our to-do lists.”
–Macrina Wiederkehr, Seven Sacred Pauses: Living Mindfully Through the Hours of the Day (Sorin Books, 2008), p. 20
