Saturday Chores

For the past 3 months I've tried to vacuum my house every Saturday.  While there are weeks I have failed to keep the commitment, for the most part it's been pretty consistent.  

Every week I vacuum, I am never cease to be amazed and shocked.

With only 7 days between vacuuming sessions, the amount of dust and debris that compiles on the floors of the house is just plain crazy.  And then I can only imagine had I not vacuumed, I would be walking in and breathing in all that dust.  Although I cannot visibly see it during the week, the dust is revealed every time I take the time to clean the floor.  I've also noticed that after my lung surgeries, my lungs have become very sensitive to air quality; thus, I can immediately notice when the air quality around me is sub-par.

Relating this to my own life, I must find the time to consistently vacuum and clean up the unseen filth that has settled into my life.  If I don't, then I will just be mindlessly walking and breathing in "dust."
