What a time in our history. My son said something that really struck home for me. He said it feels weird to be in a state of normalcy and emergency at the same time. For me, I have been through all of the emotions that I know each of you are living with. At times, it really is surreal and I have gotten sad. To help me get motivated, I walked around my yard in the rain and watched my dogs. You know our furry friends are living this too. As we moved from place to place, I noticed they were just so happy. Look at Rambo in the background. He is living right in the moment just like he always does. Patrolling the yard and chasing squirrels. Look at my flowers. They are beautiful My garden is coming in nicely and the fig tree that I nurture all year waiting for juicy fruit to harvest is showing the beginning leaves. I am already picking micro greens and will soon be enjoying fresh salads and herbs. Nature and my furry friends hold all the hope in the world. They are living and moving forward. Content and thriving. If you are feeling down, maybe take a walk outside and just breathe. Look closely at all of the things that are constant around you. This really helped me. I have a short video showing you my walk in the rain. I send you hope and peace. Comments are closed.
