Truth: In what way do
you feel out of control in your life? Or
Dare: Jump into some water. Skinny dip in a pool, swim in a lake, or wade
into a river. Let your skin touch water
that has been coursing over the earth since the begging of time.
It is day one of the MOPS 28 day challenge. Maybe it is merely a coincident that today is
April 1st (Aprils fool’s day).
I told my group I was going to stick my feet in the fish pond in the
back yard. That does not seem so romantic
in print. I would personally prefer to
dive into the warm Indian Ocean off the coast of Thailand. Unfortunately that is a 12 hour flight. Jürgen (my husband) was not going to watch
the kids for the next few weeks. So the pond it is. And as I sink my feet into this ice cold
water I realize how desperately I need to cut my toe nails. So I’m inspired to
give myself a pedicure and order myself some new sandals. I do believe this challenge is already making
a difference in my life. I cannot wait
for tomorrow.
Update: at breakfast I asked my husband and kids the question "In what way do you feel out of control"? For me the answer is carbohydrates and laundry. But they each answered the question. And it made for a really good family conversation.
