I was reminded today of the big picture. It's so easy to forget about it and lose sight of it. And sometimes it is only through life experience that we remember to take into account the big picture. I'm grateful there is a bigger picture. I'm grateful for the hope that the bigger picture can provide. It gives hope because it reminds us that the place where we feel stuck is only a small, perhaps minute, part of the picture that is our life. As I learn to remember the bigger picture of life I have a responsibility to remind others to look for it in their own lives as well and be a messenger of hope.
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.
