Today I did lots of small good things for myself; things that I never seem to have time to do anymore:
I made my space more alive: I deep-cleaned my room, reorganized my lovely little things to be less cluttered and more fresh. I filled a box with clothes and shoes and picture frames that I can do without. I washed all my blankets and fluffed my pillows.
I picked white lilacs, filling a mason jar with their stems & my room with their scent. I opened a new bottle of red wine & sipped it while cooking myself a yummy, healthy dinner. I discovered and listened to new music. I read a magazine and had afternoon coffee, for one.I carefully packaged a vintage blazer, sent with love to Norway. I found the sweetest new blog. I worked out, hard.
These things seem slight, but put them all together in one day and I feel centered, at peace, and more in tune with myself than I have in weeks. I'm hardly ever alone these days, and I forget how much I need that until I get it. I'm so blessed. Love.
