From 1000 Awesome Things, a Facebook feed by Neil Pasricha, Successfully navigating your home in the dark (#300) gave me pause. Pasricha talks about moving about your home as if you are new to it and just aren't familiar with it yet. But what about those situations where you've been in your home for years and the problem isn't that you aren't familiar with your home, it's that there's just too much stuff in general to navigate safely in the light, let alone the dark.... imagine trying this with clothes or toys strewn all over the floor or in a home that is just in general disarray simply because there's not enough time to put your things away. Danger. Danger.
Visualize yourself navigating your home in the dark - what gets in your way? Is it your stuff or someone else's? Is it safe to walk about in the dark? How much easier would this be if only you were just a little bit more organized?
No, it's not about cleaning or picking up your stuff - if only it were that simple. It's about finding a home for everything so that you can put it somewhere. It's about streamlining life to make room for the joys that life has to offer - about moving about in the dark if you want to - without the fear of a stubbed toe or bruised shin.
Something to think about. Stay sane.
