~:[CH8 - Day 100]:~ A Milestone of a Day
A number of milestones were reached on the day. Today was the 100th day of 2019, the last practice of the regular season with our team, the last regular season game for Ralph Lawler and of course, the first birthday of this little man. It's amazing how it feels when we reach a milestone. In our minds, it can sometimes just be another check mark on a list, but in our hearts, we feel something special. It would be easy to bypass this day and let it go by as "just another day," but before we know it, these "just another days" will soon be one of our last. We cannot be in such a hurry in life that we miss these milestones and take the time to appreciate them, because they don't last forever. As we look towards chasing after our goals and dreams, don't forget about the things that we are living for. As Shannon L. Alder once said,"If you chase anything in life, chase the things that get you excited about living. Chase the things that give you hope, happiness and a glimpse of a better life. Chase the things that make you want to be a better person. Chase the things that inspire you to think, create and live joyfully." While some of the things we chase will bring us recognition, awards, and riches, let us not forget the things that truly inspire us to be better people. Today was a truly a milestone and it helped me remember what to treasure in life.
