Day 170 - Play
I had three meetings today to network with different people - one is another job seeker whom I met at a networking support group and who has attended the one I moderate; the second is a friend of three years whom I view as a mentor in many ways; the third is someone I met at a networking mixer, and it was our first real discussion. All three meetings were positive, uplifting, and fun.
I also had about an hour to play with glass today. I didn’t try to make anything specific. I just wanted to play with the glass to pay attention to how it feels as it moves, how it works as I manipulate it in and out of the flame. It was just for fun.
I have seen many educational programs over the years about how children (or young animals) learn through play - it is how they prepare themselves for the tasks of adulthood. As adults, we often forget how useful play is - having fun not only lifts the spirits, but it still allows us to learn, too.
I was so grateful for a chance to play today.
