Washing Dishes

 In The Miracle of Mindfulness, the late spiritual leader and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh wrote: “If while washing dishes, we think only of the cup of tea that awaits us, thus hurrying to get the dishes out of the way as if they were a nuisance, then we are not ‘washing the dishes to wash the dishes.’ … While drinking the cup of tea, we will only be thinking of other things, barely aware of the cup in ourhands.”

Try washing the dishes to wash the dishes — then maybe you will be inspired to drink your tea to drink your tea.
