IS IT ONLY THE WOMENS JOB TO TIDY UP THE HOUSE
No I don't mean our inner house so please stop frowning 😄 Your heart your inner house needs to be in perfect order always to live with content and peace .Women all over the world are waging a never-ending war spending umpteen hours of life tidying up their homes doing household chores ,looking after their children and job .How important is it to deny oneself the little pleasures of life just because they have so much to do where as most men don't spend half as much time in house cleaning .So is a clean house a sign of wasted life .
CLEANING IS MUST BUT IN THE PROCESS DO NOT RUST
A “clean house” isn’t merely about picking up dirty socks or putting away the dishes. It is about making a home that is warm and inviting, comfortable and comforting; creating a space where we all like to hang out and as a family feel ensconced.Help your family learn that their combined efforts at accomplishing chores can remake their home into an oasis from the chaos of the outside world.Its just a question of change of attitude and habits most of the times .Try to find a schedule that works for all to pitch in their efforts Clean as you go needs to be the motto!!!!
MOM CAN WE PLAY DONKEY ASKED MY LITTLE BOY WITH A BALL IN HIS HAND
( It's playing catch-ball. When you drop the ball, you get a “D” the next catch you drop, you get "O” and so on) I gave him a not so good look rolled my eyes looked around the house.There were dirty dishes in the sink ,hampers overflowing with laundry,living room strewn with toys ,buttons to be stitched on school uniforms and a small nap I was longing to have later .He tugged at me again"mom please "I didnt know if it was guilt for not giving him enough time, but I decided to abandon “Operation Cleanup” and I smiled and said “Ready for the game?”😄
WHAT DO YOU THINK BRIGHTENS UP YOUR DAY
Spending time cleaning your house all the time or watching your kids playing on the merry go round .This time will never come back for them and for you .Enjoy it. trust me, they won't remember or care if the dishes sat in the sink all day. Or if they wore the same shirt two days in a row. Play with them and forget the rest. You can always clean when they're asleep, or take a day off once a week. Special play time is indeed a special time and is distinct from other times in your child’s life. Leave the housework. It's really NOT that important 😄
YOU BETTER SLOW DOWN ON CLEANING AND ENJOY LIFE MORE
We distinctly regret why we didn't enjoy our children's growing up more? Why we treated responsibilities as a chore and not as something to look forward to?Why we didn't create more happy memories and pursue our hobbies? Why didn't we worry less about the living room ? Why we did not play more when they were young Cleaning cooking teaching took away all the fun .Good moms have messy floors ,dirty ovens ,laundry plies and happy kids Perhaps the quote ‘A clean house is the sign of a wasted life’ might have a grain of truth in it, after all.
SPENDING TIME WITH THE FAMILY IS PRICELESS
Many women lament their life work balance and time for their families specially when they are working . When they are home they are literally on their feet with no quality time with family and kids .Eating and sharing joys and and defeats of the day and doing household chores together ,watching movies sharing popcorn ,all these can form great family moments to cherish .Remember nobody on their death beds regrets not having kept the house spic and span but they do regret not having spent enough time with their families .
DUST IF YOU MUST BUT THEN YOU CANT WRITE I LOVE YOU ON YOUR FURNITURE
Remember a layer of dust protects the Wood beneath it. A house becomes a home when you can write 'I love you' on the furniture. After spending hours making sure things are perfect in case someone came over finally you realize one day that no-one comes ;they are all out living life and having fun! And even when they do you don't have to explain the condition of your home They are interested in hearing about how you've been living life and having fun.If you haven't figured this out yet, please heed the advice in the lovely poem here .
DUST IF YOU MUST BUT DONT DIE WITH REGRETS
Eventually we are all going to mix with dust and something you love is going to be taken away , we will fall to the floor crying and thinking looking at the place where the wall meets the floor and realize why we didn’t paint it very well. You knew it would happen one day .Time passes by like a hand waving from a train you wanted to be on but you miss it just because you didn't get your priorities right on your journey of life .What do you have to say ? Do you want to stand on the platform and wave happiness away?
ARE YOU OBSESSED TO KEEP A CLEAN HOUSE OR ARE YOU TAKING TIME OFF TO ENJOY LIFE ?
Did you ever tell your child,we will do it tomorrow, and in your haste never saw his sorrow ? Did you ever loose touch with a friend and let a good friendship die because you never had time to call and say "Hi"? Did you ever follow the butterflies flight or gazed at the sun during twilight ? Did you relax in bed or in your head you were worried about how to cope up with the hundreds of chores lying ahead ? life is short remember this musical tic tac of your heart won't last forever so don't dance so fast ,just slow down and enjoy the green grass .
