Spring Cleaning

Cleaning really isn’t one of my favorite activities, but it is necessary.  It is needed to have a clean, neat place to live physically as well as spiritually.  When Bob sees me cleaning on my own  off our weekly schedule he leaves me alone because he knows I am trying to work something out.  Sometimes I also clean house to try to get past a creative block.

Many people do something called “Spring cleaning.”  This is a deep cleaning done after winter.  This is when I like to wash curtains, bedding and clean the carpeting.

But this is also a good time for a little spiritual spring cleaning.  Spending time in prayer and meditation, letting go of those things which no longer serve our higher good is a natural way to enter this time of new beginnings we call Spring.

Today is my day to paint in bold colors,
set today’s rhythm with my heart-drum,
walk today’s march with courage,
create today as my celebration of life.
