Here's hoping...

Yes! Expect the unexpected!

I love this saying. I use it often. But how do you say it in Yiddish?

And so not much has changed other than adding COVID to the list of things that could derail a plan. That's probably why the adage came about in the first place.

I am a person who likes planning, I've had to change my whole psyche, it has been a change for the better.

Fred, I hope there is not a whisper of self- criticism in the idea of letting your guard down. We need to find the balance in order to live. I write from a Denver airport restaurant, having attended a soul and work nourishing conference. It was a choice to take the risk of travel and be with 150 people in conference rooms. I’m double vaxxed, double boosted, and one known infection in February. For this group: well worth it. Another…? The balancing act will continue for all of us. Part of the challenge of this damn virus is the recalibrating and the recognition that others have different ways of doing their own personal algorithm.

Plans are made to be changed. It's human nature.
