The year is already a month old and I haven’t been on in a while. I’m a big fan of audiobooks and am currently reading The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. It makes me think about the lives I might have lived and the different choices I might have made. Staying in Germany in 2006 would have cost me the twelve years in San Diego near my mother Jewell before she passed away in 2018. Not having gone back to Germany in 1979 would have cost me a world of international experiences and changed who I became. And, spoiler alert, I think the book makes clear that every life we choose, or decision we make, no matter how enticing it might seem when NOT taken, can be fraught with pitfalls and unhappiness.

The day we’ve been waiting for , and what a matchup. Rafa meets Novak Djokovic in the final at Roland Garros. Each going for an historic title and record, Rafa going for 13 titles in Paris on clay and to match Roger Federer’s 20, the most of all time. Djokovic, Rafa’s arch rival, going for 18 grand slam titles and to be the first man since Rod Laver to win all four majors at least twice.

Rafa pulled it off in style, three sets, never dropped a single set the entire tournament. In an unusual year, thankfully an expected result. A happy outcome.
