Reasons not to Dust!

I received this through an email. I knew there was reason I shouldn't dust and clean up so much!

Dust if you must:
But wouldn't it better...to paint a picture, write a letter, do a Bible study, or spend time with a friend. Bake a Cake, play golf, or plant a seed. Ponder the difference between want and need.

Dust if you must:
But there's not much time with rivers to swim and mountains to climb. Music to hear and songs to sing. And books to read. Friends to cherish and life to lead.

Dust if you must:
But the world is out there with the sun in your eyes, the wind in your hair, a flutter of snow, a shower of rain. This day will not come around again.

Dust if you must:
But bear in mind...Old age will come and it's not kind.
And when you go, and go you must...
You, yourself will make more dust.

“Dust is a protective coating for fine furniture.”~ Mario Buatta

Until next time, HB
