Clutter

"It is necessary that we release all thoughts -- as well as things -- that clutter up our lives." The Science of Mind, Page 232

It seems that we think of spring as a time to clean up our environments.  Communities are planning spring cleaning events where residents gather to clean up the detritus from the winter.  We still tend to do spring cleaning in our homes.  I have already cleaned the windows of their winter film, and I will soon start on areas that need sorting and letting go of items.  With the warmer weather and longer days, it seems a natural time to reconsider what we want to keep.  If we live in northern climates, we have been indoors with all our possessions for a few months -- and perhaps now is the time to let some of them go. 

While we are spring cleaning, let us not forget our thoughts.  If we have had thoughts that do not serve the higher good of ourselves and others, let us let them go.  Now.  We can choose to release any negative thoughts, and we can choose to entertain only positive thoughts.  Just like we choose who we want to entertain in our homes; we can choose what thoughts we want to entertain in our minds.  The quality of our lives depend upon it.
