~:[CH10 - Day 365]:~ Sand Trap
I worked in the morning and then almost to midnight. It feels weird to have this much to do at this time of year, but instead of cleaning and cooking, I was editing. I took a break for a planned golf adventure. It's strange how our group changed with almost every trip, but with every trip, it was just as fun. With the rain, the course was muddle and the sand traps were more like water hazards. As I stood behind a pool of water, it made me think about how 2021 seemed like a large sand trap full of water. It felt hopeless if you fell into the pit of water and even when you narrowly missed the water, the sand was not much better, however, perception is a lot of how our lives will play out going forward. For many, we allow smaller miniscule things to derail us and leave us in a dismal state, but when we step back and look at the bigger picture, within that pit of despair, we might just find that silver lining, in this case, blue skies. It was a day of work and I missed spending the night with my family counting down, still, it was nice to be able to eat a nice meal, to get work done and to simple live to ring in a new year. The simple gift of the ability to breath makes 2021 another great year and although there is so much more we hope to find in 2022, let's not look at the pit of despair, rather the reflection of greater things that we can celebrate. As we say goodbye to 2021, I wish you all the greatest of days full of happiness, good health and prosperity. Happy New Year!
