Ora et Labora

My friend, in a recent conversation, related, with some ennui, that his life amounts to "church" and "work" -- he works as a musician and as an usher in a theatre.

Later, I thought, he had described the perfect life -- ora et labora -- the ideal of the monastics.

Can life get any better?

Listen to monk's Chant.

A more charged up chant.
