Day 307: Milestones

(For Sunday June 29)

I am personally grateful for milestones - all of them - birthdays, anniversaries, etc.  There are some milestones that everyone has in common (turning an age that ushers in a new decade, turning 21 and being legal for certain things, etc) but then there are the milestones that each of us have that may be unique to us or to our immediate family and nobody else would really "get."  I'm grateful for the common and unique milestones in my life and in the life of those I love.  I use them as a moment of reflection, I use them to look back at what is ending on that milestone and see how God walked me through and what he did in my life.  I use them to look forward to what is beginning on that milestone and with anticipation I dedicate my days and moments to the same God who walked with me through what just ended.  How do you feel about milestones?

The End of Affirmation 365

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.
