Location, location, location
AKA Attitude and Perspective adjustment!
I use a LOT of paper towels.
In an effort to use less paper towels, I bought flour sack towels (cloth).
About 2 years ago.
I’ve since added more of the flour sack towels and also some “bar” towels.
I’m using less paper towels but I do have to wash (pump water, run washer/dryer) the cloth towels.
I am unsure if the exchange of paper making/landfill space taking is negated by the washing/drying/manufacture of cloth towels.
But I proceed.
And for some time I grumbled about the washing/drying/folding part. Particularly the folding part.
And then!!!
One morning I grabbed the dry cloth towels, dumped them on a clean-ish counter top in front of a window and folded there.
It was an awakening… an ah-ha moment.
Folding towels, and looking out my kitchen window … a kind of blissful time, a restful, peaceful time.
And so, it happens that the task of washing/drying/FOLDING towels becomes something/some time to be looked forward to.
I am sure there is a lesson here.
Maybe, just maybe … those tasks, those things in life … those things that we dislike and/or dread … can be made pleasant … by a change in location or a change in attitude or a change in perspective.
