Lunchtime by the pool with a newer friend proved to be a valuable mixture of grilled food (a personal favorite), time in the sun, and eye-opening stories about life travails and triumphs. My curiosity about someone else's life was a great way to divert attention from my own for a few hours.
Then dinnertime rolled into the after hours with a tried and true group of girls. Nighttime by the pool, with the addition of the city skyline and a bottle of vino drank from red Solo cups, made for another set of mentally recuperative hours.
Even when there are things in life that get you down, it's good to know that there are people surrounding you that can help you feel lifted up. And that's what 2012 has been about for me, recognizing the true value in life and ensuring that I prioritize and appreciate it.
