Author's Note: Every moment is magic and needs to be savored. The art of dish washing is an often used example for this in Buddhism, best said by a Buddhist monk:
I must confess it takes a little longer to do the dishes in mindfulness, but I live fully in every moment, and I am happy. Each second of life is a miracle; the dishes themselves and the fact that I am here washing them are miracles! Every conscious step we make, a flower blooms under our feet. We can do this only if we linger not in the past or future, but know that life can be found only in the present moment.
