Finding Beauty in the Ordinary

A small snippet of Domestic Bliss...can you find beauty in the ordinary? 


I really don't mind the ordinary task of washing dishes and here's why...

* It warms my hands in winter 😂 - I always have cold hands!

* I love the smell of Fairy dishwashing liquid. I buy a different fragrance every month - this month it is original which transports me back to my childhood. There were no fancy fragrances in dishwashing liquid then!

* I love the view from my kitchen sink. I can see the birdfeeder from here which is always very well patronised by an array of birds.

* I like to gaze upon the garden noticing what's coming into bloom. It reflects what is unique to each month in natures rhythm of life.

* If I turn my eyes heavenward I see the trees, some stark branches devoid of leaves, another evergreen whose leaves sway in the winter wind, in contrast against the blue/grey/misty/cloudy sky - so many skyscapes in winter.

* I ponder on things, the mundane action of washing allows the mind to relax and meander along in gentle thought.

May you find beauty in your ordinary today...
