October Fog

"Derive happiness in oneself from a good day's work, from illuminating the fog that surrounds us." ~ Henri Matisse

I could not believe it. I thought I was in for a stress-free ride this morning but instead hit fog about 20 minutes out of the city for the rest of the journey. Sigh. I love my job but not when the driving conditions attach my shoulders to my ears.

I did however have an awesome day once I arrived. The day zipped by but it was one of those day’s that you can drive away and feel like you accomplished something, made the life of staff and students better, and gave people the skills to continue to improve in your absence.

I drove home out of the fog, illuminated by a quiet contentment as the sun set and a farmer worked late in the fields to accomplish his own good day’s work.

How was your day?

Peace,

Suzanne
