The Winds of Change

Today is Monday, 29 March 2021.  The sun is shining and it is officially spring.

The seasons are changing.  We still have cold days, but the sun seems more consistent, there are so many more birds in the skies and in the trees, and I have even seen flowers popping their little heads up - yellow and purple and green against the brown grass that hasn't quite begun to brighten just yet.  

We were supposed to have a talk tomorrow wherein our guest, Blinne (class of 2019) chatted with us about some of the work she has done since graduation - writing and publishing campaign modules for Dungeons and Dragons.  However, life has a way of happening while we are making plans, yes?

So, that talk is being moved.

We were supposed to have a talk next week by another alum of FLCC who was going to talk about how they have accomplished some pretty nifty things since she graduated as well, despite having some pretty anxieties and fears.  However, life has a way of happening while we are making plans, yes?

So, that talk has been cancelled.

But, if we have learned nothing in the last year, we have learned that we need to roll with the changes.  And so, that is what we shall do.

Change can be upsetting and bothersome in many circumstances, but I don't think this needs to be one of those times.   We still have an amazing speaker coming to visit with us.  And we have room later in the semester if someone would like to give a talk - on accomplishing things in the face of fear, or something else altogether.  

So, I hope you will join us next Wednesday for our talk about passion and publishing and persistence.  We will roll with the changes just as we have learned to do about things that are so much harder and more difficult.

My wish for you on this Monday morning is that all the changes in your life be ones that are so easily remedied and may you have many things in your life to look forward to.  May the change in the seasons bring you happiness and joy in these days to come.  May you hear the birds and see the flowers and bask in the sunshine of warmer days.
