Creating Chaos

Have you ever noticed that when you want to "improve" your home, your room, your yard, your closet...you have to create chaos first. You have to empty out the closet, or work around the obstacles to paint, upgrade, or organize. That is the state my basement is in right now...organized chaos. It is such a mess but it will be well worth the mess to get it back to enjoy again. We had a washer hose break a year ago. Now we are ripping out carpet, wallboard, filling drywall, sanding, painting, putting new flooring in and all that jazz. Then as we were moving furniture around from the 80's the legs broke and so now we have to get new furniture!!! Good plan anyway. The springs were shot due to 20 years of kids jumping on it or sleeping on it!

I often think of things like this for "spiritual" lessons. What is my life needs to be re-arranged, sorted out. Sometimes I have to get messed up a bit to sort it through and get back a perspective that may be different but good. Sometimes there are things I just have to chuck out. Interesting!

Just some food for thought.
