90-Day Summer Simplifying Challenge ~ Day 19 {Fragile}

written by Rebecca E. Parsons

Home is my quiet place. Amelia Island is my safe place.  Clearing the clutter is the goal during my 90-Day Summer Simplifying Challenge. I wrote about balance yesterday. Sometimes it is difficult for me to balance work and life. Read my 90-Day Summer Simplifying Challenge and Manifesto!!

A Recovering Magpie’s Fragile Time

I give everything I have when I commit to something. Sometimes I get burned…sometimes it hurts. Being misunderstood has always baffled me and hurst my fragile soul. Yet I survive. This is one of the boxes I opened today. I did a little art with it for Instagram. I thought it was fitting that it says, “Fragile.” That’s how I feel today.

{Coming clean} I am fragile at times!! Most people believe that I am strong and I am most of the time. Occasionally, I feel broken. When I can’t get a feel for my world, I hide or hibernate. This is one of those times.

My Summer Simplifying Challenge

The Baby Steps are progressing and I know that eventually the baby steps will result in something amazing. My 90-Day Summer Simplifying Challenge moves on through overwhelm, tears and fragility.

Today’s Accomplishments

  1. Boxes (PLURAL) opened, sorted and things placed into the ‘outta here’ boxes!
  2. Household cleaning tasks continue.

Today’s Setbacks

  1. My feeling of fragility.

Himself Speaks: I am impressed that Rebecca is really following through on this. There is light and the end of the tunnel after all! Keep up the positive attitude and it will get easier day to day.
