Where your clothes get clean, but your inner workings remain unchanged.
So you're doing laundry...
Time to clean your shirts, pants, and unmentionables.
If only we could clean the non-material items in our lives the same way.
Guilty consciences from hidden affairs, angry words said in the heat of the moment, tear tracks from broken hearts and lonely souls.
If only those could be washed away...
Cleansed into something much different.
Laughter in the background of get togethers, smiles from random strangers, kindness given freely and accepted without suspicion, and love passed around from one person to another, and another, and another until there's nothing but hope shining through for all to see.
If only the world could be healed like laundry can be washed.
It may do wonders for the outside, but on the inside, we're all still stained.
So insightful. Excellent!
