Dear Humans,

The pile of to-be-folded laundry sitting on the couch is daunting. That means it feels insurmountable. That means you just want to walk away from it.

But then you pick up one shirt, grasp it by the shoulder seams, give it two good flaps, and fold it up. And then you do one more. And on and on. One piece at a time as the pile shrinks.

It’s a good thing we live our lives one day at a time, otherwise they might feel daunting and insurmountable as well. So we grab the day by the shoulder seams, give it a few good flaps, and do the best we can. And we do the same thing with every other day in our formerly insurmountable laundry pile.

Except for those unmatched socks. They’re staying on the couch. 

Sincerely,

Mr. Curt
