First

Today is the first day of summer. What will be a first for you today?

Perhaps this will be the first day you consider your priorities and then put boundaries in place to protect those priorities.

Maybe this is the first day you decide that sadness and happiness can coincide within a day, that sadness does not exclude happiness.

Today may be the first day you decide a painful situation deserves a better outcome.

The wonder of our change in seasons is the beginning of a difference. So, how will today be your first day to be different?

    I really like that sadness and happiness can exist together.

    I need to work on allowing my priorites to include me! It is so easy to have a plan in place for what has to be accomplished, and for who, but I have to remember to add some down time in for me. I don’t want to always feel like I have to leave the house to get that time.

    Not sure how to put this into place, but I can see how it will be a great help and well worth the added planning.
