It’s that time of year again…

But it’s okay…
It’s okay to be lost. It’s okay to not know-because that’s what learning is, that’s what life is. After all, it’s September and back to school time for all of us.
Whether we’re in kindergarten or just a bewildered adult, life is all about the learning. And it’s not a waste of time!
Why are we here? Because we have
- lessons to learn
- choices to make
- skills to master
- time to spend
- joy to experience!
And since no one is responsible for grading us/judging us,
we can take a deep breath,
give thanks for being alive and
just play/work/ grow/ live/love/give/…!
What can you do with this opportunity? What gift do you want to give to the world? to the community? to your family? to yourself?
What do you want to focus on this fall?
Picking one goal to focus on is smarter than feeling overwhelming by trying to do a bunch right now. We all know how quickly we can get discouraged if we bite off too much.
Maybe there’s a skill you’d like to start improving?
Would a class get you started?
A YouTube video?
A friend to tutor you?
(I’ve got my sister mentoring me as I work on improving my knitting!)
Maybe there’s an activity you’d like to participate in?
Would joining an organization get you started?
(I’m enjoying a twice-weekly Tai Chi practice with friends!)
Eating that “elephant” can be done only one bite at a time. And where you start (trunk? tail? leg? side?) is up to you!
Feel free to share what you might choose to start with!
