I am watching my brother's two children for the weekend. When we finished mentor sessions and I saw the mess that was created while I was busy, the prompting was to leave it and just go outside. And although it took a while for 7 kids to get coats and shoes on, we enjoyed the trip to the pond in our neighborhood. It heals me every time. So many inspiring things in nature, and we do something new every time. This time the feature was floating downey goose feather boats and then trying to sink them with ground cherry chinese lanterns.
Also the prompting this morning was to not go running and instead brainstorm about how I could help fill kids' and husbands' needs. And that was helpful and it was nice and quiet to do that.
Nature heals me too!! I hate it when I clean the house when I feel we would benefit from being outside!! I do that too often. Glad for the reminder to just leave it.
