June 1st - anxiety and possibility?!?!?

There's something about June 1st.
Not sure what it is.
It's a date that creeps up on you. Slowly. From January... into spring... then BANG!

June 1st makes me feel like I haven't done as much as I'd like to yet.

It's the start of getting to 1/2 the year.

It's only a date. But for me it's a symbol of anxiety.

It's also hopeful. The weather is beautiful, the sun is out more. I can walk, bike, and soon enough... swim.

As for my work - church - it's a month where I feel I want to say so much, do so much... all b/c the next month - July - is around the corner.

July is slower, restful.

June has potential. Pregnant with opportunity to make your summer count.

If you start early with BBQ's and walks and festivals you have more opportunity to impact people around you - friends, neighbors, even random people.

Take what you want from this post, or this month.

My decision:

Tame the anxiety - it's only a date.
Enjoy and leverage the opportunity - it's a wonderful date that sets in motion 90 days of open possibility.
