Today
I cleaned the house, the kind of cleaning that happens when guests come.

When I chose to be curious instead of self judgemental, I noticed brief moments of contentment amidst tasks I hate.

As I acted from devotion to another, I took wholehearted action in an area I typically aviod as much at possible. Because I want my guest to be welcomed with spaciousness and beauty in my home.

Because I chose curiosity instead of judgment I am left exploring how I would be different if I treated myself with the gracious consideration and devotion I give my guests.
