post covid goal

I’ve been seeing and hearing so many discussions of what it will be like to go back to normal. I don’t want to go back to normal. With a nod to Joe Biden, I want to build back better. For me, that means an attitude adjustment. I once got a fortune cookie that said “you should resign as general manager of the universe.” (I’ve since learned that this is a Larry Eisenberg quote.) While I hope that I was not quite that arrogant, it is certainly true that I have felt responsible for a lot of things that were never my problem and probably none of my business.

I want to spend more time visiting parks. I want to just sit and look, not count my steps.

I want to have a beautiful garden this summer. But I don’t want to pay for it with pain. My joints demand some compromises. More easy plants and more help with weeding.

It’s not that I want to lower my standards. I just want to be easier on myself. That’s my new goal.
