**A compelling case for reclaiming our attention through digital minimalism.** Drawing from Cal Newport’s book, this reflection explores how simplifying our tech use can restore peace, purpose, and deeper relationships. By focusing only on the digital tools that support our values, we can live more intentionally—echoing the Christian call to simplicity and wholehearted love.

This reflection reminds us that joy is more than a fleeting feeling—it’s a habit of the heart, cultivated through gratitude, service, forgiveness, and a willingness to seek the good. Rooted in God’s love, joy becomes a steady light we can receive and share, no matter our circumstances.

This reflection invites us to rediscover the power of reading—not just as a habit, but as a way to grow in intellect, empathy, and wonder. It reminds us that reading deeply can shape who we are, helping us live more thoughtful, compassionate, and purposeful lives.
