Beth's Ponderings
2020 is a Leap Year with a February 29th, otherwise known as a Leap Day.
Now there are mathematical reasons why we have Leap Years, since solar calendars aren’t as accurate as lunar calendars, to make sure our time is correct.
But, here’s something else to think about…
How many times have you said that you wished you had more hours in the day, or more days in the week? I know I sure say that a LOT!
So, here is our chance...we’ve all been handed a bonus day in our week, an extra 24 whole hours.
What are you going to do with this extra time?
The same old, same old?
Try something new that you’ve always wanted to try?
Enjoy some peace and quiet?
Spend it with family?
Reflect on what you are grateful for?
There are umpteen tasks and activities we could do, and umpteen ways we could spend those 24 hours, but how many of us will treat it like “just another day?”
We’re heading towards spring and this is a perfect time to start to stir things up and air them out, and one of the best ways to get the energy moving in ourselves, and in our environment, is to literally move things.
Why not take a few minutes to clean out a drawer.
Sort through your books, and only keep the treasured copies.
Get rid of old papers that you no longer need.
Fix or toss any broken items.
Pull clothes out of your closet that you (truthfully) have no intention of ever wearing again, and donate them.
Everything around you affects your energy levels so while we have this “extra” day in February, why not create some space in your life so you can breathe easier, stretch out more, and so you can welcome in new and exciting adventures this year.
