This is a wonderful time of year for me. It's almost summer, but not quite, and there's a promise in the air of good times ahead and outdoor fun breathing fresh air.
I love Spring Cleaning and try to do it every year for my house.
Have you ever tried to do it for your mind?
Banish the negative thoughts you've been hanging onto about the people around you.
Tell yourself that the little things that seem to annoy you and make your day unpleasant (the passenger behind you who kicks your seat on the plane, your husband's socks on the floor, the way your teenager has to slap the stairwell as he/she comes downstairs and dirty the wall) just don't really matter enough to spoil your mood. In 50 years, who will care. The plane trip is only 2 hours - you can stand that. Ignore the socks - your husband more than makes up for them in other ways. And remember, in a few years, you'll be fondly remembering how your long-gone teen slapped the wall.
Life is too short to spend it in a bad mood.
