God did a favor for me today. He made it snow. It's been 17 days since my last post, and had the roads been clear enough to travel upon, it would have been another four days before I could write. Thankfully, one of the many cancellations occurring today is a meeting that I was supposed to co-host. While I was looking forward to seeing the presentation and my friends, it is actually a relief to get back that 9:30 to 3:30 time slot. Do you ever say, "Yes" to things that you know you don't have time to do? This was one of those things. I looked at my calendar, shook my head, and said, "Well, I don't know. I guess I could do it". Now, like many previous posts, here I am writing about my lack of resolve to "just say no". If you are finding yourself in the same boat, it's time to jump out. The holidays are busy enough without taking on every job that's put on your plate of responsibilities. Scrape some of them off, or say, "No thank you; I'm full". Let's savor the moments ahead of us instead of gulping them down to make room for more. If saying, "Yes," will hinder the flavor of what's already on your plate, remember to say, "No".
It's never too late to change, no matter how many times you've tried.
Today's sea glass picture is called, "New Perspective". (I'm trying....)
