This is why I don't feel like attending the Parade of Homes tour currently going on here in Dixie.
Decor and upgrading have not been a priority since we moved here a year and a half ago.
And now, it seems like such a waste to do so.
I was the girl who always had a home project going on or at least a plan. Who once thought she found joy in doing so.
After 18 months of shaking old habits and re-channeling my thoughts, I feel like I've come to a grateful phase of my life.
There's no need to re-kindle the old fire.
There is a peace and quiet joy when you become content with what you have.
Don't get me wrong...I would replace the stained carpets and dated tiles if I could. But it's not a priority and certainly isn't something that I should be consuming my time and thoughts with right now.
I hope to never meet the thief of 'comparison' again.

Good point! Contentment is priceless, allowing peace to govern our decisions and life. Love you!
You are so right, and even more destructive is comparing ourselves to others, another dead end situation!

Thanks for sharing this, I blogged on this recently too. Although I'm still battling it, ha! Hugs Spark Sister!
