Summary

I was talking with a friend the other day and she asked me the question, what are you fighting for this year? And it took me a minute to answer her, but after a pause, I finally said, “You know, I think I'm fighting for fun.” I know that might sound trite or silly, but I'm realizing it's—it's not that silly, it's actually necessary.

Especially in this pandemic with the political stress and all the responsibilities of daily life, I'm realizing this year, I'm going to fight for fun. And she responded. She said, that is not trite or silly at all. That's so important. And I'm so thankful she asked me that question because it made me really kind of get that in perspective this year and so this year, that's what I'm doing!

I'm fighting for fun in my life.

And honestly, I hope you'll join me.
