Give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me only my daily bread - Proverbs 30:8

Reflecting

As water reflects the face, so one’s life reflects the heart.
Proverbs 27:18-20

One of the reasons I pursue minimalism is so my life doesn't reflect chaos. I want to strip away the non-essential and more fully appreciate what remains. I want my life to be about relationships and adventures, not house work and organization. 

I'm headed off on a relationship building adventure with my daughters next week, so this place will be quiet. It's perfect timing as I'm feeling like I need a break. 

I hope the official beginning of summer is a good one for you!

  3. We are almost neighbors at Still Saturday today. Decluttering, or as we call it at our age downsizing, is something we're working on and it does amazing things for one's soul, a sense of peace almost. Thanks for this post and lovely photo.

  7. Hope you have fun with the girls this week. It was nice catching up with you this morning, if only for a few mins. Glad you remembered the eggs. Like I said sometimes we don't multitask all that well, including myself. Beautiful picture by the way. Talk more soon.
