I finally got around to putting together the Lego puzzle that I got for my birthday. I’ve been putting it off not because of laziness (well, maybe a little bit), but it’s mostly because I regarded it as yet another task that I have to polish off on an already long and seemingly endless list. It’s been the story of my life since the beginning of Summer this year. I could never find a time to just… be. You know?

But I’m glad I did it. It allowed me to say, “It’s okay to stop and smell the roses, and take a pause.” It seems I had forgotten how to do that. It’s something that we all need to give ourselves. Sometimes you just let some fires burn. You can fight them another day.

You can see the progression of my Lego puzzle below. I really love it! (Thank you boo.)
