Disruptions in life can be challenging. I came upon the following saying some time ago: 'is this the hill you want to die on?'. I don't have to look far to realize that little things like time change, while it may be a disruption or challenge, it's pretty small in the big picture.
We got word a couple of days ago about a long time friend that passed away suddenly. Apparently very healthy till the end, very unexpected.
Approaching the third trimester of my life gives me perspective of what is important. (I added the third emoji above ↑ after thinking about this). Hey, I'M BREATHING, I have full use of my hands and feet, and I'm able to play golf!
Challenges now center more around how I will use the rest of my time. Taking care of myself physically, emotionally, and spiritually are the important things. While I still find criticism difficult to listen to, I try to look for the value that the criticism might hold for me to consider. Self criticism, or discernment is also important to me. As I start my day, I hope to seek tolerance and guidance in all that I do. Dear yellow bus driver, guide me well. Thank you
