I spent a few hours scrubbing our new house free of the leftovers from its former tenants in preparation for moving in. Now I am very tired
Strangely and surprisingly, I’ve always found cleaning to be a very spiritual activity. I think it is because of some kind of psychological projection: as I’m removing the muck and dirt from walls and floors and appliances, it almost feels like I’m doing the same for my mind and spirit at the same time. Does anyone else have this experience?
If you know me at all, you’ll be wondering why I don’t make use of this ‘spiritual exercise’ more often…
