“Your ambition should be to get as much life out of living as you possibly can, as much enjoyment, as much interest, as much experience, as much understanding. Not simply be what is generally called a ‘success.’” –Eleanor Roosevelt

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.
