Day 332: Crossovers

(From Thursday July 24)

I had book club tonight with two of my dear friends.  I drove home feeling all warm and fuzzy from spending time with them.  They are crossovers in my life, two of many that I am grateful for.  What do I mean by crossovers?  They were co-workers who became friends outside of the workplace and even though we don't work together any longer we remain friends.  They crossed over from being work friends to real friends. They are just two examples, I have more.  And I'm so grateful.  It happened when I entered back into the work force a few years ago and started working at Young Life.  When I left Young Life I wasn't sure how many work friends would crossover.  It's easy to be work friends but it takes a lot more intentionality to be real friends. And I'm grateful for these friends who have remained in my life.  I love them dearly, they make me feel comfortable to be myself and to be honest about my life.  I'm incredibly blessed to have them in my life.

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.
