"Observe how gently but surely the natural world renews itself daily. You may not believe this, but Mother Time does not rush; seven o'clock does not tell six' o'clock, 'get a move on, there are places to go, people to see, faxes to send.' If you have children, have to commute 90 minutes a day to work, or need to reach European clients on the telephone (as do three very good friends of mine), what I am suggesting probably seems impossible ... Here's what I do many mornings and evenings; a half-hour before I have to rise and just before I go to sleep, I lie snuggled in bed and listen in the dark to Gregorian chants -- the sublime, ancient invocations sung by Benedictine monks for the last 1,500 years. It's a pity I don't understand every word the monks are singing but it really doesn't matter." BACK TO BESTSELLER HELL |
