Sometimes it feels necessary to get things accomplished, but other times it really just adds to the stress in the day.<br /><br />I had to come over here and tell you, though, that just a few hours ago, your post came clearly into my mind. I had read it earlier, and your words were in the back of my mind. I was feeling quite grumpy and taken for granted, not wanting to make dinner tonight. I was making pizzas, and as I poured some oil out onto the pans, and prepared to spread the dough out, I slowed down and paid attention to what I was doing. I felt the oil on my hands and then the dough. It relaxed me and made me feel so much better about the task! Thanks for reminding me to savor the moments at hand, instead of rushing through.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17600694619101352923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760384943386215722.post-52587124624172921942011-06-17T22:10:00.535+10:002011-06-17T22:10:00.535+10:00Beautiful.

Though I am guilty of not feeling every moment as it passes, when I do remember, my senses come alive and everything floods in at once, but not overwhelmingly, more like an awakening. Thank you for your wonderful words, as always...MJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13238426502277628056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-760384943386215722.post-84257557090514389052011-06-17T12:37:44.268+10:002011-06-17T12:37:44.268+10:00I'm guilty of the multi-tasking too!

I read a book this week about a woman who visits with the Amish for several weeks and reflects of how their way of life can alter her own. One thing I took away from the book was the power of finding peace in your work. Whether it is stirring porridge or vacuuming the floor, there is value in all we do and what we do deserves our full attention. This just confirms me feelings on this! I need to incorporate more attention into my life...LJS https://www.blogger.com/profile/00557549680551581746noreply@blogger.com
