Happy Saturday, friends! Today I'm thinking about the things I want to make room for in my life and how easily the days are filling up before I've even given them thought. Some things get space because they're necessary (the laundry, the errands, the responsibilities waiting on me)...but there are other things I miss if I don't leave a little room for them. Here's what I've come up with so far...
- early wake ups so I don't have to rush
- time to spend at home so I can focus on my home
- enough sleep to get me through the work days
- time with friends
- time to read
- time to write
- time spent outside, especially as the sun makes it first and last appearances
- conversations that run long
- laughter around the table and dinner spent with whoever is here at that moment
- ordinary moments I'm glad I said yes to
- honest prayer as I still sort through things in my brain and on my heart
- time with my sweet little family, whether it's in person or a phone call
As I wrote this post, I realize yet again that a lot of what I want is already here: books waiting to be read, people to spend time with, a journal with empty pages...making room may begin with paying attention to that and giving these things a little more of my day.
Thanks for reading today, friends! I'll see you back here tomorrow. Love to all!
Jen
