The Ignatian examen: finding God in the day

At the end of a long day, your head touches the pillow and starts counting failures: the missed deadline, the sharp word, everything left undone. Before self-reproach gets the last word, sit for three minutes. Where did warmth surprise you today? Where did you feel boxed in? Lay the whole day down, gently.
