I read a simple phrase this morning that struck a chord with me.
"Do everything with perfection"
Right away someone might think "I have enough stress without trying to be perfect at everything"
But that's not what this is saying. Its not saying be fantastic or you yourself should be perfect,we know perfection is impossible.
Its going back to the same message of staying focused on what you are doing.Whatever you are doing do that one thing completely.
If you are doing laundry, do the laundry with perfection.
Enjoy the smell of the laundry soap, watch the warm water as it flows into the washer. Feel the fabrics as you move the clothes from the washer to the dryer. Take in the warmth when you remove the clothes from the dryer, smell the freshness. Think loving thoughts of the person whos clothes you are folding. If you are folding your own clothes think loving thoughts of yourself.
If you are having lunch with a friend, be there completely in spirit, not thinking what the rest of the day holds, or how you were offended by someone that morning.
Take in every element of what you are doing. Enjoy every moment ,giving it your complete attention and your perfect stillness and love.
There is always much to be done but it can be done in more perfection if it is done with less hurry. Basically, enjoy everything you do. Savour every action like a connoisseur.
Allow Gods peace and stillness to surround you. Be quiet, be confident, and be strong.In this stillness and peace you will find all that you are looking for.
