Life as a ritual

The thought just occurred to me that what if our lives were constructed in the same way as the church calendar?  The Orthodox church follows a rhythmic pattern, throughout each day, each week and all year, in our worship.  What if we formed our lives on the same pattern?  What if we created a pattern to our daily lives, a ritual to be followed?
This sounds really good to me, but that might just be my preferences talking. I really like pattern and ritual.
