Sometimes I do remind myself of ...You are so good. Sometimes I do remind myself of how lucky I am to have the house to clean but my guess is that it occurs for me less often than for you. And mantras *are* useful. I never seem to write stories about mantras but the stories fill the same role for me as mantras do. So maybe a story like that would get awkwardly self-referential or more simply redundant.Secret Hippiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04268744646117371096noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5505367520831684287.post-11206160737171321432013-06-03T06:14:27.216-04:002013-06-03T06:14:27.216-04:00I really like this one.

Sometimes I am tired and cranky and I have to stop and say things like, "I am blessed to have a house to clean," or "I honor my family when I clean this house. I am a part of this family so I am honoring myself as well." These simple mantras remind me of my core beliefs but if someone else were to say these things; they would not probably not have the same meaning and end up being empty words.
