Dog Days of Summer

The dog days of summer originate with the constellation Big Dog which has the brightest star, Sirius, in the nighttime sky from July 3 to August 11.

It's the time of the summer when the days hold the greatest heat. It's also been observed that dogs, perhaps animals in general, will gather together on hot days and lay unmoving in the shade during high heat. (source)

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.
