Do you have two and a half minutes in your day that you can give to God? This is the beauty of the rosary.
If I need a quick pause in my busy life—just a two-and-a-half-minute break—I can pull out my beads and pray a decade in order to regroup with the Lord and be nourished spiritually. That’s all a decade takes: one Our Father, ten Hail Marys, and one Glory Be. I can do that easily, pausing for a moment in between emails, in the car, in my office, in between meetings, in between errands. I don’t even have to stop some things I’m doing: I can pray a decade while cooking dinner, sweeping the floor, holding a baby, or walking to my next appointment.

Hello,
I just wanted to reach out and say that this is the first time I have visited your website and I must say, I am so excited to have come across it while searching for a good description of the Joyful Mysteries.
I wanted to also kindly let you Know that the word “Bever” I assume should be “Never”? Below you’ll see that I copied the part that shows the misspelling.
