~:[CH8 - Day 280]:~ WATER'vre It Takes
We lined up the Hydroflasks today. It was actually quite funny. To see them in order makes you realize what kind of array of colors you have. However, despite the beauty of that spectrum, the row made me think of water, an essential to life. Today had a few bumps early on in the morning when I got some not so good news. It wasn't devastating, but made me think. Much like water is essential to our lives, so are the relationships we have, especially with our family. I have been so busy working and getting things done, doing things on my list, that I think I failed to see that I should be doing more to spend time with the foundation of my life and the thing that is essential in all of our lives, family. We are busy people by nature, but we should do whatever it takes to make times for the loved ones around us who have given so much to us and in exchange, we must give that love back to them plus more, not because we are obligated, but because we want to. Not everyone has a perfect relationship with their family, however, there are people around you who deserve this attention, whether blood related or not and today was a reminder to me that we must not put them aside for all that is going on in our lives now. Make the time for them much like they've always made time for you. As much time as you think you have, you might be wrong, because in an instant, that foundation you've built everything on, may one day soon disappear. Treasure it and make sure you take the time to appreciate it. Do whatever it takes.
