These are trying times. When things like that happen, people tend to get really short with their responses and words. It's because we are tired, we are scared, and we are fearful. It's ok to feel all of those feelings. But...... we also need to be mindful that this is a time too slow down, and be mindful of our words. There are a lot of people out there needing encouragement right now. So I beg of you, slow down and speak with loving words. I can't tell people when this will end, I can only tell them it will.
Need some help with finding words of encouragement?
Try these:
“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”
– Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Tough times never last, but tough people do.”
– Robert H. Schuller
“Life is not easy for any of us. But what of that? We must have perseverance and, above all, confidence in ourselves. We must believe that we are gifted for something, and that this thing, at whatever cost, must be attained.”
– Marie Curie
“In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.”
— Albert Einstein
Above all, reach out to people in this time. A simple "Hi, I was thinking about you"goes a long way for them and you.
As always.... Take care and #Findyourjoy
