The Trick About Life Is To Make It Look Easy!
I came across this poster while packing. I had bought it many years ago and somehow it survived my last move and made it to this apartment. It seems appropriate with the tasks that are looming up ahead of me.
Sometimes I think how we approach a task has an effect on how it turns out. If we can do something, even something we dislike, with grace and finesse the final result will be so much more rewarding than if we have to be dragged kicking and screaming and do it oh so begrudgingly.
A nice bit of irony as I end this session of packing procrastination: I found an old Ellery Queen mystery novel I had started reading soon after I moved into the apartment here. I had lost it and couldn’t find it anyplace, much to my chagrin because I wanted to know “whodunnit”. I came across it fallen behind my bedside table. Now I will have to start again because I can’t remember all the details. Mystery solved!

let me know “whodunnit”.
Making it look easy is definitely the hardest trick. So I’m just going to have to show all the bumps and bruises of my mistakes until they can be corrected or finally laughed at at the end.
