While the week has been busy, it was also relaxing.

Starting this cycle with a few days off for some medical appointments and other things allowed me to take some time for self-care along with reflecting on the blessings that I have by doing the things that I do and the gratitude I had for the benefits and opportunities that I have in my part-time employment as I know there are many that want but do not have such an opportunity, yet there are others that want to be there but need more support and they also look to me as the shining example to be. Along with navigating the real season of challenges, it is understanding how to not feed off the energy of others along with understanding to start to let go of what was while understanding the need to be patient and understanding as things come to fruition. While they are not totally what I believe needed to happen, they are in essence what I need and that is what matters.
