In order to make any chances in our life, we must decide. Not to decide is a decision in itself. We make plans, we organize activities, we make arrangements, we call to have appointments, we hope to have meetings and meet ups and hang outs with people we feel comfortable being with and around. We buy and purchase things to make our life just a bit easier. We send each other text to let them know we have been thinking about them, we make conference calls, we post cards and postcards and letters, we email one another regarding a class that has been cancelled. We put reminders into our mobile phones to remind us of important dates, of important arrangements, of important anniversaries, of important names, of important numbers, of important amounts, important information, important notes, important points.

There will always be tasks needed to be finished by us. There will always be dishes needed to be washed and dried. There will always be children needed to be fed and changed. There will always be pets needed to be taken care of. There will always be errands to be run. There will always be plants and trees needed to be watered and looked very well after.
