Happy June!

On the first day of June, it's a good time to reflect on the past season and make intentions for the coming one.

For me, looking back is the harder part. I'm less used to that; I'm always thinking about the future, but spending time on the past is less obviously useful.

These past few months have been:

Full of schoolwork to the point of unbalance

Good for my relationship with my partner; we've developed better honesty and intimacy, and spent more time together (partially because I now own a car)

Politically unusual (my opinions on certain topics have been in a lot of flux)

Full of colder weather which I'll be missing as summer begins in earnest

My intentions for the next few months are:

Stay productive (esp helping family) even when I have the option to not be

Continue to work on my relationship and help my partner become more comfortable talking about difficult things

Make enough money to save some

Write in my journal

Spend lots of time outside and going for walks/hikes

Play my violin more, and maybe start learning the guitar

What I love about June

I love the loud frogs at the pond croaking away every night. The crickets, too. I love the frequent swimming opportunities and strawberry season and the occasional lucky thunderstorm. I love the clear blue sky and the cool starry nights. I love the feeling that the whole summer is ahead of me.
