Ahhh! Haaa Haaaa Helen can breathe, now!
Stuck in a rut? Have writer’s block? Spending too much time in front of the television watching all the NCIS, MONK and Law and Order Marathons? If that’s not you, it’s been me!
Thankfully, I learned about the spiritual practice of ‘clearing out one’s external physical clutter’ in order to clear out the emotional/inner-stress clutter!
This past week, I felt motivated to:
1) dig out a bush in front of my condo;
2) dig a trench, buy an extension to my downspout, lay down some nice marble chips, etc.
3) all to build up some dirt around my patio and neighbor’s condo to redirect the water from our terrential rains!
Oh – and treated myself to a beautiful, sun-requesting purple flowering bush to uplift my mood and the view out the door from my living room! Ahhhh!
4) Then, onto the inside of the house… cleaning old clothing out of the closet that no longer “SUITED” me in my new career/personal business;
5) Donating the clothing to the Salvation Army after writing up my itemized list for my year end tax donations;
6) Collecting old gold jewelry to take to a local jeweler to take advantage of all the gold buyouts;
7) fixing a closet door (DID IT MYSELF, YES I DID!) that had come off its hinges;
Got my business filing done, vacuumed, etc etc….
and, AHHHHHHHHHH! I’m breathing easy…. as well as – I GOT MOTIVATED TO CLEAN UP MY WEBSITE AND WRITE IN MY BLOG!
So, if you’re in a rut (I know you’ve heard this before) – but let me inspire you – get those weeds pulled, clean up that clutter, get yourself organized and open up your mind to creativity! EVEN my three cats… Buddy, Fonzie and Kitty felt the EXCITEMENT of it all by having NEW SPACE to explore in and out of the closet space! They’re wondering why I’m now able to close the one set of closet doors, imagine that!
HA HA HELEN living in the moment!
Live Life! Laugh Often!
