I imagine we all can get tired of the repetition of life at times, or envy the Jonses, or compare our progress to old classmates.
But no matter what you do, there’s something likely exceptional to reflect upon. Perhaps you got a job no one thought you could get. Perhaps you taught someone how to read. Perhaps you took a leap on an adventure, leaving friends and safety behind.
Every so often I have a go at my ‘Bucket-Done List’. It’s an endless activity that brings up incredible memories, picks you up if you’re feeling blue. And the best part? It puts into perspective all the incredible things you really have experienced.
Thanks for reading this week. Have a wonderful weekend!

Lyndsay, thank you so much for sharing your insights! My favourite was Wednesday. The ability to be open about your ignorance and accept new knowledge from anyone who has it is basically a super power – not because it’s magical but because it’s rare.
Next week is going to be a real brain stretcher for all of us, I think.
Some things for the weekend
