Shoveling snow with yourself

In his poem, "Shoveling Snow with Buddha," Billy Collins writes that the Buddha "has thrown himself into shoveling snow/as if it were the purpose of existence." Read the poem, then go do some mundane chore--the dishes, laundry, yard work, cleaning the toilet--in the same way. Pay attention to every little detail of what you are doing. Be aware of touch, taste, smell, sound, etc. Be aware of any resistance to doing the work, your love (or not) of being in the moment. Write about it.
