Who Says Doing Laundry Isn't Spiritual?
A friend of mine said that awhile back, in response to my bellyaching about doing laundry. It's kind of the stuff of life; we eat, we sleep, we get dressed and undressed, we do laundry and take care of our living spaces, kind of like living as a monk. i wonder if growing affluent and getting others to do our daily business detracts from our own human experience.
Aren't we meant to do that kind of stuff ourselves? Lay the foundations of our own lives, rather than "subcontracting" those tasks out to others?
That's how I interpret my friend's comment.
What do you think?
