Ground Hog Year

2020 has been a crazy year for all of us! The longest version of Ground Hog Day ever!

Since losing my job almost eight months ago, I have had the opportunity to pause and reflect on my life professionally and personally.

What is really important | What I will do and what I won't do | What I won't take for granted.

What I want to do | What kind of organization I want to work at | What kind of brand I want to build | What I want the day to look like when my two feet hit the ground

Our lives are so short when you look at the time we have compared to the 3.8 billion years that the Earth has been around.

I have shared a poem, a quote and a song that I wrote that have inspired me the last few months. Have a great safe and, happy rest of 2020 and here is to 2021!. Y.O.R Jeremy

The Summer Day

Who made the world? Who made the swan, and the black bear? Who made the grasshopper? This grasshopper, I mean- the one who has flung herself out of the grass, the one who is eating sugar out of my hand, who is moving her jaws back and forth instead of up and down- who is gazing around with her enormous and complicated eyes. Now she lifts her pale forearms and thoroughly washes her face. Now she snaps her wings open, and floats away. I don't know exactly what a prayer is. I do know how to pay attention, how to fall down into the grass, how to kneel down in the grass, how to be idle and blessed, how to stroll through the fields, which is what I have been doing all day. Tell me, what else should I have done? Doesn't everything die at last, and too soon? Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?
