Challenge Day 229

229. Fresh & Clean: Write about how you feel after you take a shower.

I love hot showers and how I would love to stand under the water for 20 minutes if it was not so wasteful to do so. Although showers feel good any time of day and for any reason, I particularly love a shower after a hike or travel since scrubbing off the real and perceived filth is so satisfying. Washing the face, hair, and body with a variety of soap products is a calming ritual that helps me start the day or re-set my attitude or emotions if I have had a challenging day. Strong water pressure is a necessity for a gratifying shower experience.
