Friday night comes and I am sitting here at our local pub enjoying the buzz around me. I’m reminded that life has to be celebrated even in the most trying times.
In case you are wondering – we are careful, we are mindful, and social distancing. It is good to see a semblance of normalcy even for a little bit. It has been a long week for me – work, writing, and trying to launch a small business. I need a short time away from my four walls. I love being in the midst of the bustle and camaraderie of the people around me.
Makes me forget about my doubts. One came last night – the thought of over sharing my life and exposing my vulnerability. The words were pouring out and I hesitated.
So I promised myself to take each day as it comes. When there are days that I can’t write, I need to stop fretting. The words will come like they always do. I am letting go of things that I cannot control.
So now it comes while I wait for our food. Not a nugget of wisdom to share – just enjoying a moment that life has to offer in simplicity. A fitting way to end the week that I want to share with all of you.
Enjoy the weekend ahead and enjoy the beauty around you.
