Let Your Soul Catch Up

The myth of our modern world is that our lives get better the more we do. Actually, the opposite is true:  we become more real, more human, more here, the less we do.

Today, find a bench or stoop to sit still, if only for ten minutes. To sit still is to stop. Literally. To take a break and spend time with God. Practice going to this spot at least once a day just to stop, to quit, and to let your soul catch up with your body.
