In days when we are most busy we need to slow down, take a pause, be present. There is a strong tendency to be unconscious, to be numb, to block out what is real.
The song Centering Prayer by The Porter's Gate reminds us:
I want to be where my feet are
I want to breathe the life around me
I want to listen as my heart beats, right on time
I want to be where my feet are.
I chase my worries
I flee my sorrows
But what you give is now
So take my burdens
and my tomorrows
I want to be where my feet are.
Today - can you be where your feet are? This is it. Now is what we have.
