It is getting close to that time of year where reflection happens, a sort of rebirth begins and we look to the new year as a fresh start. I love that feeling. I can put the old behind and begin anew. As I pondered where I might begin with life’s plight to perfection I became acutely aware of something error in my ways that needs to be changed and/or improved. I tend to always push myself ahead of everyone else. Case in point. While I am shopping and I come to a crossroads in between aisles where there are two of us trying to proceed, I’ll scoot across first because I feel like I’m always ahead of the other person and move a little faster. Why not wait those few seconds and let my “friend” move across first and then I can patiently and happily proceed on my way. The same goes for when I am in my car. I don’t need to turn quickly in front of someone else that is oncoming. I need to just wait, let them drive by and then I can patiently and happily drive on my merry way. So simple. So important and so needed. Watch out 2020 – you are first!!
