Savoring

Absorbed in the moment

doing simple things well…

waking up,

presenting prayers,

doing exercises,

performing duties.

“God’s love actuates us,

and we must love God with…

our whole strength,

our whole heart

our whole soul,

our whole mind.” [1]

Sharing the moment

to sanctify life promoting …

peacefulness,

gentleness,

helpfulness,

pleasantness.

“God sanctifies us.

We, therefore, unite in

adoring,

praising,

thanking,

blessing”[2]

Attentive to the moment

savor our presence for…

work,

hobbies,

play,

friendships.

In the movie "Harvey", Elwood P Dowd, played by Jimmy Stewart, explains coping with the world this way: "Years ago my mother used to say to me, she'd say, 'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart. I recommend pleasant. You may quote me." Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
