Its just about this time of year, when we are either well into Spring or fiscal Q2, depending on your ability to separate Life from Work, that some of us start second-thinking about the way the Year will go. We start saying to ourselves ... "Maybe "
Maybe I should take that trip to the Isle of Man TT ...
Maybe I should change jobs ...
Maybe I ought to join a gym before summer ...
Maybe I should stop watching so much television, or cut back on the coffee, or alcohol, or all of those things at once.
Maybe I should read more, or blog more, or learn Spanish.
Maybe its time to move to another State, maybe another Country, preferably one where they speak Spanish.
These equivocations can go on and on, at least until the Summer is old and even the most optimistic of us are forced to admit 'it's too late this year', and the 'Maybes' get reconfigured as New Year's Resolutions.
And, as dependable as the ever so slowly diminishing rotation of the Earth about its axis, around this May-time next year we will start questioning those Resolutions and the Maybes will come out again.
It is my fervent but realistic hope that All of Us can make a Maybe or two come true this Year, if that is what we truly want.
