AKA Attitude and Perspective adjustment!<\/p>\n

I use a LOT of paper towels.<\/p>\n

In an effort to use less paper towels, I bought flour sack towels (cloth).<\/p>\n

About 2 years ago.<\/p>\n

I’ve since added more of the flour sack towels and also some “bar” towels.<\/p>\n

I’m using less paper towels but I do have to wash (pump water, run washer\/dryer) the cloth towels.<\/p>\n

I am unsure if the exchange of paper making\/landfill space taking is negated by the washing\/drying\/manufacture of cloth towels. <\/p>\n

But I proceed.<\/p>\n

And for some time I grumbled about the washing\/drying\/folding part. Particularly the folding part.<\/p>\n

And then!!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

One morning I grabbed the dry cloth towels, dumped them on a clean-ish counter top in front of a window and folded there.<\/p>\n

It was an awakening… an ah-ha moment.<\/p>\n

Folding towels, and looking out my kitchen window … a kind of blissful time, a restful, peaceful time.<\/p>\n

And so, it happens that the task of washing\/drying\/FOLDING towels becomes something\/some time to be looked forward to.<\/p>\n

I am sure there is a lesson here.<\/p>\n

Maybe, just maybe … those tasks, those things in life … those things that we dislike and\/or dread … can be made pleasant … by a change in location or a change in attitude or a change in perspective.<\/p>\n
