Slow down and everything you are chasing will come around and catch you. ~John De Paola
Yesterday I was greatly frustrated in my planning for a family vacation in May. Nothing was working. I couldn't find flights that were affordable and with times that were reasonable. I couldn't find accommodations for all of us. I was ready to pull my hair out, so I took a break and just knitted for hours. It was very calming and gave me hope that somehow I would make everything work another day.
Well, today was the day. I talked with my daughter-in-law and she was willing to change the dates I was having so much difficulty with. Then I went online and found flights and accommodations that were nearly perfect. I feel a great sense of relief and now we are all looking forward to some quality time together.
I hope I can remember this the next time I panic when things are not going my way. Stepping away from a problem for a while is sometimes the best way to solve it.
