Went to church today and I didn't know there was a service going on. Just got back from MNL so I didn't know the schedule of services for the Holy Week here.
But I love rituals, ceremonies - the Holy Mass, Stations of the Cross, Holy Communion, and not just the Catholic ceremonies, but Jewish rituals, Buddhism, Hinduism, Moslem, etc., and not just religious, but anything! A dance is a ritual! Music is a ritual! Writing poetry, an essay, a story, etc., is a ritual. Walking, talking, sleeping, waking up, having a nap, making love, oh, what a beautiful ritual! Bathing, cleaning, cooking, eating, gardening, and on and on and on...an afternoon tea is a ritual, a beautiful ceremony. Everything we do is a ritual. Every breath is a ritual. Life is a ritual. It is sacred, it is beautiful. And living life well is a beautiful ritual. Let's honor it. Let's enjoy it - Enjoy Life!
