Reflection

“It is a happy talent to know how to play.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson

Prayer

God of Joy,

All we have to do is observe your creation to see that you never tire of play. The silliness of seals or the preposterousness of peacocks… Dizzying dolphins and flamboyant flamingos. Help us remember that a life without leisure is a life that can become hollow. Fill us anew, in heart and soul this day, with a zest for life that can make work become play and can season the lives of others around us. Amen.
