Yesterday was the best Sunday ever and I am not sure why. There was nothing special about the day, in particular, but Husband and I kept looking at each other saying, "This is a great day."
We did nothing of consequence. We didn't even play outside all day! I cleaned the hall closet. Husband mowed the lawn. The kids did a whole lot of nothing. And it was perfect!
It was the kind of day when I felt completely comfortable in my skin and with my brain and was totally content with everything. I had no expectations and no plans. But I ended up feeling fulfilled and productive.
Husband had cleaned the house on Saturday and I was catching up on laundry. Folding clean clothes is very therapeutic for me. And although the dirty dishes seem to be multiplying in the kitchen sink and around it, I did not care!
I wish everyday could be like yesterday, but then it wouldn't be so special, right? Plus, I am sure we would get bored doing nothing eventually. I do hope the feeling of contentment stays around though. It is a nice change from my frequent visitors, Anxiety and Stress.
I hope that today you have a day like my best Sunday ever!
"I've learned by now to be quite content whatever my circumstances. I'm just as happy with little as with much, with much as with little. I've found the recipe for being happy whether full or hungry, hands full or hands empty. Whatever I have, wherever I am, I can make it through anything in the One who makes me who I am." Philippians 4:14
