feeling that i belong

A new study finds that those interruptions at work – someone stopping by to chat or show you pictures of their new puppy - can actually be beneficial. While the downsides include feelings of stress or lower productivity, there is also an upside: employees feeling more like they "belong," which can lead to a sense of comradeship, greater productivity, and higher job fulfillment.
“Friendship has always belonged to the core of my spiritual journey.”
​– Henri Nouwen
Affirmative prayer: I live as a member of a larger life, God’s expression of the Universe, Infinite Mind, humanity. I give thanks to belong, and I allow my creative endeavors to be inspired and activated by this beautiful, unified Field. Where two or more are gathered, strike up the band! Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
