The Ring on a Chain. #Fading #Rekindling

Step 5: 28/01/2022

The pendulum of time is almost thru its first of 12 yearly swings. This period started with a lot of vigour for me, but in the end, I started to fade.

I didn't tend well enough to my Everyday Essentials in my backpack. The core activities of P endured but the peripherals, one after the other, fell.

The Ring crept up on me in a subtle way but with devastating effectiveness. Little by little, I lost a piece of my resolve, until I was a mere wraith of the self I set out to be. #Fading

Not all was bad, but all wasn't good either. (More about that in the retro- and prospect at the end of January.)

The point is, that there is unrealized potential :)

I want this post to mark this pivot in my course. #Rekindling

With a Chain as a memento.

The Ring on a Chain.

The Ring as a symbol for the powers of corruption. The Chain as a symbol for the powers of resilience.

A chain is only as strong as its weakest link; keep mending those weakest links.
