the boring home life
of a domestic goddess
is luxury
too many suffering souls
in this cruel world
would swap places
in a a heartbeat
we can begin to live differently
by doing small things
like
thinking how lucky we are
to have dishes to wash
to have food to plan a meal
to appreciate what we have
as my nan used to say
always look behind you
there are so many who are far worse off
Wisdom!
ReplyDeleteDuring COVID and recovery, I have been doing bare minimum things to look after self and cat, with much repetitive sameness. It's surprising how pleasant this has been!
I like your Nan's saying. A nice way to say "quit your griping."

Wonderful perspective Rall. Joy and fulfillment can be found in so many places, if one truly looks. 🙂✌🏼🫶🏼
ReplyDeleteI love the way you think, Rall ... of course, it's who you are, the essence of you. I am enjoying summer away from my blog. Hope your winter is progressing nicely.
ReplyDeleteMiss you Helen....hope you are having a wonderful summer!
DeleteYou have to feel gratitude for mundane things when you see what this world had become.
