thoughtful thursday

today's thoughtful thursday comes from "the happiness project," found at gretchenrubin.com.

it's the most recent entry, and a sentiment i rather like. "Don't wait until you have some free time. You may never have any free time."

how true. we so often put off starting big projects, or going on an excursion, or we start to dread the pile-up of tasks and chores that aren't immediately pressing, because we think to ourselves, "not right now; i don't have the time for that!"

but if not now, when? a project doesn't have to be completed the first day it's begun. an excursion doesn't have to be any farther than a walk around the yard to get autumn leaves or try and find four-leaf clovers. and tasks and chores will always be there, ready to be done in an hour, but will definitely keep if you leave it for another few.

so. how about today.
