WOS: My work is my life

Author: Dan Miller - 48 Days & Glassbox Media September 11, 2023 Duration: 3:44

We often find ourselves caught up in the pursuit of success, thinking that only the newest and greatest things have value. But sometimes, going back to the old nuggets of truth and history can offer us valuable insights.

This is a story from "Radical Hospitality: Benedict's Way of Love." The story takes us to Mexico City's bustling market, where an old Indian man named Petalamo sells onions. The interaction between Petalamo and a customer from Denver raises thought-provoking questions about the balance between productivity and living a life filled with meaningful connections and community.

Join us as we reflect on this story and explore how it applies to our own lives. Stay tuned for a quotation that will leave you pondering the value of the journey itself and the role of destinations in our lives. Get ready for an insightful episode on finding meaning and purpose in our daily lives. Let's dive in!
