Reflections

I woke up today to a new year, but as I look out my window it looks alot like the old one…..gray, cold and wet. The new year always causes me to reflect back on the previous 12 months and try to determine what the year meant.

There were alot of changes, big and small. Some good some bad. Thinking back to other years I could probably say the same at the conclusion of each year….changes……good….bad…..typically the good ones we think fondly of and the bad ones really weren’t as bad as we thought.

The year was highlighted, or perhaps low-lighted, by a job change. For some reason the universe decided to put a little bump in the road as my career winds down. Certainly new opportunities await me, but in what direction ? Is it now time to get off the corporate treadmill and chase a passion ?

There were other events happening in the past year, most of them enjoyable. Time spent with family and friends laughing and sharing experience’s, time spent traveling and exploring, new places visited and some old favorites gone back to.

I hope the new year brings new opportunities that are rewarding, more time spent with loved ones, more adventures to be found.

The universe works in mysterious ways….as I was completing my last workout of 2024 I was placing a pair of dumb-bells back on my basement floor when I felt a slight twinge in my back……yup one last reminder of the year that was, a pulled back muscle to end the year…..I hope 2025 is just a little bit better

Peace and Love,

John
