Happy New Year, my dear, dear hypothetical readers. Our first real post of the year, and it happens to be a Chat Tuesday.
How about that.
It’s bright today, and I can’t tell if there are clouds or blue sky, but it doesn’t seem to matter either way. The sun is the sun.
Here we are at the very start of a year that isn’t the least bit used up yet, and sometimes people like to make resolutions about what is to come, what they’d like to do. I am not among them, they seem to set us up for feeling bad about ourselves and I think we have more than enough ways to do that already.
Maybe this year we can focus less on whether it’s the best kind of sunshine, whether it’s enough sunshine or not enough sunshine, whether we’ve done all we can to take in the sunshine.
And just enjoy the sunshine.
For as long or as little as we want.
There’s so much around us telling us there is a perfect way of being, but that makes no sense for humans. I don’t know, maybe it’s AI telling us, which, well, that’s a whole other post.
But maybe this is the year we can entirely be ourselves, this is the year where OK is not only “good enough” it’s enough.
It’s enough.
I’m not saying we’ll all feel this way immediately or constantly or from here on in. I’m saying let’s just try it, a little bit at a time.
After all, the sun’s the sun.
Have a great Tuesday and a wonderful, joyful and fantastic start (and the whole way through!) to your year.
