~:[CH14 - Day 44]:~ Truly Sweet
It rained all day. At points, it came down hard. I was planning to go to the girls game, but with my schedule not allowing me to catch the bus, I decided not to drive out there due to the weather. Luckily, they won. Instead I focused in and got some work done. I cleaned up a bit, sorted through a stack of things I needed to do, prepped for our simulation tomorrow and got things together for next week's conference. Surprisingly, I finished everything I wanted to wrap up and even got a few other things taken care of. As I sorted through a few things, I opened up one of the gifts that my friend had given me. I received a lot of gifts during this trip from colleagues and friends. One of my friends gave me these beautiful chocolates, which were amazing to simply look at, let alone eat. As I sorted through the things I received, I was truly appreciative of the thought that went into each gift. They remembered things about me, which made me feel grateful, as it shows their attention to detail. In the end, I miss the time I had shared with everyone even though I was working long hours, as even during the time I was working, it still felt refreshing. As I wrapped up my work at home, I felt a similar satisfaction. The sweetness of life isn't contained in a single frame in your life. A precious moment in your life lasts long beyond its frame. Pass on the sweetness to others and you will help them find moments to bring a smile to their face in the present and in the future as well. Especially in difficult times, take some time to find that sweetness and pass it on, as we'll all need it at some point in our lives.
