I've kept daytimers and calendars from when Celine was a baby and finally decided after never looking at them again I do not need to keep them anymore.<br /><br />I find that the state of my physical surroundings really affects my emotional well being. And the lighter my space feels the freer I feel emotionally and spiritually. Must be why I love the outdoors so much - so much space. Like an expansive breath of fresh air for my soul.renee @ FIMBYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04825147941410607389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-65846428625501579872011-04-02T10:57:08.377-07:002011-04-02T10:57:08.377-07:00Where's the "like" button for the po...Where's the "like" button for the post?<br /><br />Dee :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-49703419924007684322011-03-28T17:15:36.705-07:002011-03-28T17:15:36.705-07:00Unfortunately I didn't inherit Mom's acute...Unfortunately I didn't inherit Mom's acute sense of keeping the house clean and in order, other than the surface~ but oh how good it feels when it actually gets tended to periodically! and that goes for the inner 'house' as well - thanks for your thoughts, Karen - love the picture of Mom!!Ruthnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37258556.post-63618744623516799622011-03-27T19:16:29.518-07:002011-03-27T19:16:29.518-07:00it is very easy to let life's clutter - be it ...it is very easy to let life's clutter - be it actual stuff or the spiritual/emotional - take over.

But thinking of thinning it creates mild panic.<br />I can easily be critical of those much maligned materialists who acquire goods to satisfy their longings. Yet, to be honest, I do the same for sentimental reasons and too easily claim spiritual reasons (my books are, of course, spiritual) for doing it.<br />Whatever we use as security blanket is a way of trying to fill space that only Christ can fill.Bryan Norfordhttp://www.norfords.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
