Hand Wash Cold: Care Instructions for an Ordinary Life

Hand Wash Cold: Care Instructions for an Ordinary Life

Itâ€™s easy to think that meaning, fulfillment, and bliss are â€œout there,â€ somewhere outside of our daily routine. But in this playful yet profound reflection on awareness, the compelling voice of a contemporary woman reveals the happiness at the bottom of the laundry basket, the love in the kitchen sink, and the peace possible in oneâ€™s own backyard. Follow Karen Maezen Miller through youthful ambition and self-absorption, beyond a broken marriage, and into the steady calm of a so-called ordinary life. In her hands, household chores and caregiving tasks become opportunities for self-examination, lessons in relationship, and liberating moments of selflessness. With attention, itâ€™s the little things â€” even the unexpected, unpleasant, and unwanted things â€” that count.
