Get me off of this thing!!!!Scared, not scared. Scared, not scared.
This is me. Changes hour to hour. Minute by minute.
No control. That's my issue. And that is what scares me. Having NO CONTROL.
We have to put our faith in others. In hopes that they do the right thing.
It's a BIG world out there but this Covid-19 nightmare has made it seem very small.
I've been trying to reflect on the things I DO have control over...
- Washing my hands. Telling my kids to wash their hands.
- Cleaning and disinfecting my home.
- Going out only to get groceries or necessities. (coming home to scrub myself like I'm a surgeon)
- Eating food that fuels my body, mind, and spirit. Drinking more water than alcohol. (it's been tempting)
- Getting outside to walk. Breathing in and out. Taking in the sounds of the earth coming back to life.
- Doing yard work in March.
- Lots of reading and writing. (No excuses)
- Being with family. (the boys are forced to be with mom & dad. AHHHH!)
- Sitting around the house and looking and feeling at all my blessings.
Stay healthy. Stay happy.
Revin UP to kick Covid-19 in the butt!
Great post Kim! We can all relate to how out of control we feel, and the few but crucial things we can do to gain some control! in a way, some of those are also teaching us all to live with each other in a more transcendental way where the most important things in life like family become our hope and inspiration again! We move each other; we give each other hope, we inspire each other to go beyond the daily routines, and to do some of those things we put aside when the world just goes too fast. The same is happening all over, people's compassion, generosity and kindness is becoming an inspiration to everyone, as if when the world slows down, and we are not running on auto-pilot anymore, we can feel more because there is not much we can do.
