Spring Clean

Spring is probably my favourite Season. Flowers begin to grow and bloom again, the evenings are bright and the rainy days seem few and far between. Winter is finally over, and with that it feels like the New Year really is in full swing. With each Spring, I somewhat subconsciously attempt to Spring Clean my life. The January Blues seem to leave as quickly as they arrived to begin with, and I find myself reevaluating every aspect of my life.

It's no secret that I hate cleaning. My room is usually a mess, I hate doing the washing up, and more often than not I forget to do my laundry too. My surroundings typically mirror my life, which is mostly just very messy. Usually I'm pretty okay with that. I like things to be wild and wonderful and everything in between, and with that comes a certain level of untidiness. But when Spring rolls around each year, I always find myself trying to clean things up again.

We can all get a little bit lazy, and let life get a little bit too messy sometimes, but it's important to remember that every mess we make has to be cleaned up at some point. I've pulled a complete Marie Kondo on my mind, my life and my space, keeping only the things that 'Spark Joy.' In the words of the cleaning goddess herself, "the best way to find out what we really need is to get rid of what we don't."

Spring is a reminder that life is always changing. After darkness, there is always light, and with every death, there is rebirth. Regardless of what time of the year it is, and regardless of the highs and lows we experience, there is always room for a Spring Clean.
