This past month, I was feeling really cheerful and thankful for the time I had to enjoy household tasks.
One morning, I was standing on a dining room chair with one foot on the table cleaning the little chandelier that hangs there. Granted, the sun was shining bright on the snow and in
Michigan
that does wonders for the heart at this time of the year.
Like a lot of other people, I really bond with my house and want to have the time to enjoy taking care of it. Not that it always works out that way.
It’s those times when I’m in the moment that give me an emotional boost.
I consider myself a sensitive person (or a highly sensitive person!). I’m often overwhelmed with the size and number of the world’s problems. I try to live in such a way that I effect positive change and it’s these little tasks, the joy of family, and the beauty of art and nature that keep me from stumbling over the sorrows outside of my sphere of influence.
And did I mention? Bring on the spring!!
