I am a bit down at the moment, I seem to have lost my zeal for things. Years ago I decided that the above saying was one that I was going to live by, it is hard to do as I tend to worry about things in the future.  I learnt that by doing different classes that you shall be ‘mindful ‘ of your actions that you are doing at the moment and I read a similar thing in one of the daily blogs that I read.

 

‘Being mindful in the present means to be aware of this specific moment in time. You can fully see, hear, understand, and experience your surroundings and your life. You can appreciate the people and things you come into contact with in every moment. Being mindful in the present is something that seems so obvious and ideal, but isn’t as simple of a task as one might imagine.”  Taken from ‘The Simple Dollar’

 

Another blog that I read daily, ‘Down—to—Earth’ takes joy in the everyday things. Rhonda-Jean talks regularly about the turn around of her attitude and the way that she looks at things. She finds great joy in the process of everyday living and in the life that she leads. I always find her blog an inspiration but at times it can be intimidating as there is so much that I don’t do.   That is most likely enough putting off, now to do it….the floor is covered in dog hair, there are things scattered everywhere,  the house is very untidy and the bathroom needs to cleaned. Wish me luck.
