Celebrate your labor today
Happy Labor Day! I love this holiday because the gift of labor is something that everyone–everyone–is able to give, and it is one of the most valuable gifts for humanity and the world. Even those who are unable to “work” in the traditional sense are able to give of their time, treasure, intellect, inspiration, or physical labor in the service of others. On this Labor Day I invited friends to my new office and had it blessed. As part of the blessing, these words were said: “Bless this place of counsel that it may be a place of revealing the hidden, giving clarity to confusion, and bringing wholeness to those who seek it.” All the best to you on this day of laborers, a day in which we celebrate the work we do in our communities and around the world.
