Testing Patience and Participation
As Pondering Continues. . .
My first thought when the February ActiveRain Challenge was announced in a post by Wanda Kubat-Nerdin - Wanda Can! was that it was interesting but likely not one where I would participate. I have entered (and not entered) many AR challenges and contests over the years. For a number of reasons. However, as the number of days in this short month increased, I became a bit more intrigued by a vision of possibilities. Maybe my initial reluctance had changed. That realization didn't come to me in a dream but in reading some very creative entries.
Plus, the informative follow-up post by Kathy Streib about Canva captured my attention. Although I recall some things from the past about Canva, perhaps I could take this reclaimed information to the finish line.
Over the last few weeks, I have separately wondered about the subject of regrets. But not this time - I choose not to participate in this challenge. Despite trying and exploring it at length, I finally determined this challenge was not the right fit for me. And that’s okay - because being an AR member does not require regular attendance nor participation.
Beyond some pretty basic guidelines, it's a relatively uncomplicated life here. And you know what, this post was pretty simple to write once the decision not to participate was made. Fortunately, my clumsy fingers continue to press keys into some form of blogging communication. Even if my routine is different than past years, it works for me.
If you read this post or any I have written, thank you. And if you have commented or liked them, I appreciate it. This time, I have no regrets. At least, not about this. And now I am marching forward on this last day of February. Some leaps happen like that. . .
