The summer months are often polarizing. On one hand, everything slows down; children are out of school, we vacation, socialize, and engage in recreation. However, with the heat, it is easier to lose our temper and get frustrated over mundane events. Some summer seasons are quiet and seem to flow like a lazy river, gently guiding us towards relaxation. Other summers, though still marked by holidays, are compounded with disruptions, disputes, and unexpected events. July 2024 falls into the latter category.
