As I've traveled hours away from the laundry, the floors to sweep, the office hours, and the school lunches, I appreciate the imagery even more. Spring break w/ a few of my kids; and while meals still happen, parenting a steadiness that I choose to engage in fully, the perspective is changed; I bring a different power to my "work".
My hope is that you can also allow yourSelf to have moments where you "pull back" in order to bring more power, experience more Life, and go further toward becoming the person you are created to be.
