I finished reading The Monastery of the Heart: An Invitation to a Meaningful Life by Joan Chittister today. The review will come soon, but I wanted to share this quote with you because I think that it is such a powerful reminder:
To live in the spirit of a Monastery of the Heart
is to be led daily,
from one moment of prayer to the next,
to the depth
of the sacramental life,
to the consciousness
that all life is sacred
and that every act of ours
makes life either
more - or less - holy.
