Some seasons of life are just plain tough. During these times, our instinct may be to reduce, take on less, eliminate anything that is not necessary. While sometimes that may be the best thing, I would argue there are times when adding to our work load, particularly in the form of a passion project, can be the better option. Sometimes you really should do that passion project...even during a tough season of life.
Well, March rounded out a tough season overall. More kid illnesses, sleepless nights, and the struggle to establish good routines. BUT...as I noticed when I wrote a month in review for January and February, there was actually a lot of good things that crowded out the bad. Its easy to focus on what's tough, but where's the joy in that? While I am very happy Q1 (Jan - March) is over, I am also happy to reflect on positive things - what I read, listened to, worked on, and enjoyed. Bring on spring now, please!
