Beauty Amidst Chaos

Beauty Amidst Chaos

Lately more often then not, our house seems to resemble a war zone more then a home. You see we are in the midst of a full out living room refresh. The floors have been sanded down. The popcorn has been scraped from the ceiling. Then mantle and molding are off. These are all signs of forward progress and are fun exciting changes to see. Whats not so fun and exciting? Having my furniture spread all throughout the house. Having an empty living room without a couch to relax on. Having a guest bed that’s comfortable for sleeping, but not so great for lounging. Having a never ending layer of dust over everything, at all times. 

I could go on, but I digress.

Today I decided that while there isn’t much I can do to speed up the work that needs to be completed, there is something I can do with what I have. Today I took the time to clean off our kitchen table. I cleaned up the endless pile of papers that always seem to collect, and dusted for like the billionth time. Then I made a little corner of peace and beauty amidst the chaos.

Today even though there is no one but me to see it, I choose to love my space. I choose be present and enjoy the blessings I have been given. I choose to carve out corners of happy just for me. 

 

 

Will you choose to make corners of beauty amidst your chaos with me?
