Across The Room | Exploration in Self Portraiture | Routine {2}

I am revisiting routine.This time I decided to look at a weekly routine…grocery shopping.

Stepping back and looking at these photographs, my first reaction was…man I want to paint those cabinets…I thought I liked that shirt and that dress but now not so much…my hair looks stringy, I have bad posture…as I looked longer I started to think…I love when I remember to bring my bags to the grocery store…I am so happy we have kittens…gosh I love the sun…there I am drinking more water…I love my boots…I am so grateful we have the ability to go to the store and buy healthy good food…I started seeing so many things to be grateful for.

Can I bring that gratitude into my daily routine, even into the chores I don’t enjoy? Can looking at myself from a distance help me to shift my inner dialogue?

What does your daily routine look like?
