It turns out that you don’t need to go anywhere
Nor do anything
Other than become the best version of yourself
In the life and context that has been given
In the humble task in front of you now
And tomorrow
And in the days ahead.
The journey to take is within
That simple turn of the heart
An attitude you have carefully nurtured
And practiced
To perfection.
The kindness and warmth
The care and attention to detail
The presence that you offer
As you serve the coffee
Fix the tap
Quote the job
Offer your stage performance
Answer the phone and reply to the email.
And so it is that everyday people
In everyday tasks
Become the light of the world
By dispensing a lightness of heart
The lift of the spirit
The impact
The phenomenon
Of work crafted by love.
