The Duty of Delight

“Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same.” – Helen Keller
“It is not easy always to be joyful, to keep in mind the duty of delight.” – Dorothy Day
Duty of delight.
Rigor of joy.
Discipline of optimism.
Practice of play.
May we take our duty, rigor, discipline and practice seriously to move from dormancy to awakening.
A revolution of the heart to change self and the world.
Go love someone today, or maybe even a few.
“The greatest challenge of the day is: how to bring about a revolution of the heart, a revolution which has to start with each one of us?” – Dorothy Day
