Labor Day

Another year, another Labor Day . . . What will you be doing this year? A lot of people get together with friends and family for relaxation, good food and fun. The weather has been really nice lately and hopefully it will continue over the next few days . . . perfect beach weather with the sun shining and the cool breeze blowing.

Most of the time I really dislike holding to a schedule and seem to do things on the fly about 80%-90% of the time with work related things being the obvious exception since almost everything in that arena has to be planned out weeks, months even years in advance. So, I do not have specific plans for the holiday outside of the expected family and friends getting together to hang out. The water park, Hawaiian Waters, might be a good idea since I have not been there in years and most likely a good idea given that the beaches will most likely be exceptionally crowded as they typically are on a holiday. At least traffic will be non-existent or at least one can hope.

It is definitely a time to do a little bit of reflecting on local and global concerns, being thankful for the good things being a necessity. Making sure things are not taken for granted take effort and being complacent is a very easy place to fall into during the good times.
