I have not been out much over the last few weeks, other than to physical therapy appointments, but I am very grateful to live in such a beautiful place. Pictured above is an unfiltered sunset view from my bedroom which has become a sanctuary for healing, reading, and writing.

I know that the renewed strength I desire for my knee and body in the future is contingent on my discipline and consistency today. PT and rest are vital. There are many days when I'm tempted to push ahead with activity because I get impatient, but the healing process has its own timeline, and I've been learning to accept it and even embrace the quiet rhythm of it.

It's given me many opportunities to reflect on life and connect with others. I've had authentic conversations with long-time colleagues and friends and have really appreciated those who are present and take time to really listen, engage, and even offer creative ideas or introductions.

We have a lot of travel ahead for TruPotential Group, so I'm not complaining about this down-time!

Wherever you are in life, whether busy or slow, I hope you are also able to embrace it for what it's worth. New seasons lie ahead, so soak up all you can from this one!
