In my house I try and have one place I can always go that is calm. I don't want to look at junk, I don't want to hear noise and I don't want to see unfinished projects. I want peace.For me that is my master bedroom. I try and keep that one room free of clutter and noise so that when I am there I am happy and calm. (Do you see that big grin on my face just thinking about it?)
I would suggest on this Frantic Friday that you identify a place of peace in your surroundings. Maybe it is your bedroom, but it could also be a corner chair with fluffy pillows and a beautiful view out of the window. Your peaceful place could be a bench in the garden or a chair by the pool. Wherever you find your peaceful place, remember to preserve the qualities that bring you peace.
It may feel weird to etch out a tiny corner of the universe to feel peaceful, but trust me, you will be a much happier person if you do.
Much of the time, it's actually at the gym, but I do love my nighttime computer time with my husband's company as well. And the sauna before bed is certainly a solitude oportunity. Just me and my reading.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, the sauna before bed. What a nice idea. Maybe I could kick one of the kids out of their room and make it into a sauna. Hmmm, I bet that wouldn't go over too well, darn. Thanks for the ideas. I'm glad you have a place of peace too.
