01-17-20: shoveling

We all have to do tasks that feel fruitless sometimes. I have been shoveling our patio for two days straight. It is dumping snow. I look outside thirty minutes after my work and it seems like I have done nothing at all. 

However, I must remind myself that if I do not start now - it will be far more brutal later. The more snow that builds up the more demanding the task becomes. Being buried is a much larger problem. 

It feels good to know that I am preventing us from that. It is important to protect yourself from being buried in all aspects of life. Daily maintenance is so important because once it builds up - it can be hard to recover.
