Our children carved their names and other precious things like "I hate dad" into the doors of the home. They looked pretty bad. I started painting them 2 years ago. I have learned a lot in the process. I recently re-painted the first door because it looked bad and had worn in some places.
The change in vibe is amazing. The dark doors used to draw a lot of attention and light. Now they are neutral, light. I love it.
So I'm thinking what are the dark doors in my life. Places that are functional but dark. Can I make them light?
Memories? How can I add perspective and gratitude to my past?
Unpleasant tasks?
Cleaning the house...?
I think gratitude turns dark to light.
Put a coat of gratitude on the dark times in your life. Even if all you can do is be grateful for lessons learned, that is important.
