Today is the first day of spring. I'm grateful for seasons. Colorado admittedly has 2 real seasons and 2 mini ones but there is still a distinction. And I'm grateful for them because they help mark the passing of time. They give me a measure of time to go by so that if I am looking forward to an event that happens in a certain season I can judge the time correctly. I'm grateful for the newness that each season change introduces. Some people respond strongly to one season while others to another. I respond more strongly to the season of fall and then spring, I could honestly do without summer and winter. But I'm grateful for all of them because they provide some change. I have known people who live in places where there really aren't seasons at all. It's the same year round. No changes, no new leaves, no flowering blooms that differ because of seasons. Ugh. How boring! I wouldn't like that at all so today, as it is the first official day of spring (whatever that means - haha), I am grateful for seasons.
I've been thinking about it for over a month. Usually, when I'm in it I'm engaged. But this time? I started it indifferent and I've felt indifferent all along. I should have never started. Hindsight is 20/20 they say and they aren't wrong. So when I opened my eyes this morning it was clear. It's time. Time to quit this 365. This is the first 365 that I haven't posted several of the days, the first 365 that I wasn't super excited about, the first 365 that I've quit. I've changed my social media presence and interactions the past year so this is also the first 365 that hardly anyone has been interested in. Is it the topic or my decision to not be as accessible on social media? Or is it some other reason altogether? Well, regardless...I'm throwing in the towel on this one. I can't say if I'll ever do another 365 again. Time will tell and I will know if and when it's time.
