Day 45: And the beat goes on...

Another winter day, more snow, more laundry and...the beat goes on.

I read somewhere once that virtue was more than just being virtuous. It was being steadfast in the every day things. As I understood it, virtue is performing those little every day chores (that must happen) in a cheerful manner. I think the key is the attitude.

There are days where I perform those every day chores,but have a rotten attitude - I doubt very highly that I have virtue on those days.

Today, thankfully, was not one of those days.

I walked, I did laundry, I cooked dinner, the girls and I worked on various craft projects while the boys were on an outing.  It was a non-consequential kind of day, but it was full of virtue...and perhaps, at the end of life's journey today was more consequential than I can ever imagine.
