"A young man with a cognitive disability greeted me on a recent trip
to the grocery store. His joy radiated across the citrus fruits aisle.
Tears welled in my eyes. Not two seconds later, the man spotted his dad
and raced toward the salad dressing. The moment passed quickly as most
moments do - but not before I made a note in my journal: Grocery store man. So friendly. Tears.
"By estimate, I encounter somewhere around 100 people and tend to even
more tasks each day. The sheer volume of daily interactions makes it
hard to recall each one. I'm afraid grocery store man's glow - and the way
it touched my heart - would have been lost in the bustle if not for a new
prayer practice I'm trying out: Bullet journaling with an Ignatian
twist."
A recent U.S. Catholic commentary by writer Jessie Bazan offered an overview of this process of bullet journaling.
