Day #16 - Willing Hands
What is one of my favorite things? Relaxing fragrances. I'm not a flowery person, nor do I like strong scents. My favorite ones are clove, cinnamon, vanilla, and orange (plus coffee brewing and a library or bookstore). Smelling those fragrances centers me in a way that is hard to explain. Lets just say that I missed my wallflower this weekend, but today I stopped in and purchased a few. I also purchased new lamp shades for our living room lamps as well as a new lamp for the basement (the old one was broken). The lamp shades make a huge difference in the room...it feels quite a bit more inviting.
The Mary task for today asks, "what is your block?" I do feel that life (i.e. external forces) prevents me from keeping on task. Honestly, I don't know if I am able to rid myself of external forces (stuff will always happen). However, quite possibly I can ignore external forces. Not sure how happy that will make me...ignoring things in the world. I'll have to ponder and pray on that more.
Today I completed the floors in the bedroom, but I will be having the carpets professionally cleaned next week. I seem to have a full week ahead of me, but my plan is to continue the 31 day process, because I truly am seeing changes.
