Back to 'School-mal', hooray

Seeing kids, moms, dads, and family dogs at the bus stop this morning put a smile on my face. Bustling again neighborhoods show us how far we’ve come since last year and how close we are to our ‘normal’ lives. While we do continue to have challenges facing us, there are times when we must focus on the progress. There will always be challenges and losses, but it’s in our nature to drive towards improvement and overcome trials whatever they may be.

That said, we don’t spend enough time rejoicing in the wins and the advancements. When we make steps towards success, it’s important to take a moment or two to appreciate what we’ve done. These victories, however big or small, are what can define happiness for us and others. Don’t sell these achievements short or you’ll miss out on the joys of life.
