Maybe it was inevitable, but I missed posting a blog last night.
My original goal was a few times per week, which changed to daily after Easter Sunday and hadn’t stopped since.
My secondary goal, was daily through to the end of June (end of the school year) and three months into the ‘new normal’.
When I made it to the end of June I thought I might as well keep going and the daily blogs continued…until last night.
As Ingrid and I head into some summer vacation time, I also need to realize that REST is a part of Be The Best. You remember that blog post about Power of Focus? That story about a very successful businessman and philanthropist spending a day a week sitting in a room and just thinking, has always blown me away and caused me to think.
Throughout the summer, I may not post quite as frequently as we look to re-charge our batteries. That being said, I’ve just learned of some innovative ways of posting via the phone which I may just try!! Stay tuned.
The summer so far has been very bitter sweet. Seeing all those lacrosse players on the weekend wearing Chris’ patch and the decal on their helmets was awe inspiring, humbling and just plain awesome. Thinking about the incredible summers we’ve had as a family and realizing we’re not going to have another one quite the same is simply gut wrenching…there is no easy way around that fact.
That being said, the summer provides hope and opportunity for us to continue to find our new normal. The understanding that REST is a part of Be The Best is a lesson that’s not really easy for me, but I’m going to try to learn it.
Have a great week.
Be The Best.
