Can you count your major blessings?

Brand new pool pump is not supposed to leak, and it didn’t for the first few weeks.

 

Can you count your major blessings?

One of the often misused blessings is an ability to quickly put things into perspective.

Discovered our recently replaced pool pump motor is leaking.

This now becomes another thing on the list of things needing attention.

Attention requires time.

Too many things (that shouldn’t need attention) needing attention can derail our daily routine.

Derailed daily routines are what lead to excuses, unhealthy compromise, and stress.

And so i quickly understand that this is a first-world issue.

Do you see everything as a fleeting gift?

Hope and faith
Yesterday on the Music Choice Soundscapes channel. My reflection was intentional.

 

Do you see everything as a fleeting gift?

The persistence of vision.

Seeing the future and never waiving from forward progress.

The redemptive power of persistence.

Find meaning.

Learn endurance first.

Everything we have is a gift.

Insert human forgetfulness.

In America, we (stereotypically) think everything is an entitlement.

Paved roads, electricity, public education, clean drinking water, etc, etc.

Our children, our grandchildren, our belongings, our health, etc, etc.

All of it could be taken away quickly, and suddenly, and what are we left with?

This is ours to figure out.

Hope is faith holding out its hand in the dark. – George Iles

Is he privileged?

Everyone is going through a hell no one else knows about.

 

Dinner conversation last night reminded me how challenging it can be to live as a small business owner.

Am i lucky for being in my current business state?

Am i privileged?

Is it fair?

i hope i never become one of “those people”

Apple Watch
So grateful to have technology in my life.

 

Remember a time when there wasn’t a phone?

Of course not.

But there once was a time when the telephone was impossible.

Saying technology is ruining “the way it used to be” is tempting, especially for the people who don’t invest the time and effort to become proficient.

i hope i never become one of “those people”.
