Did this bring us together, or tear us apart? Did
the loss of life, income and opportunity make you bitter or push you out of your
comfort zones?
Are you still suffering? It feels as if most of the planet still
is, and that we're really no better off than we were when the news broke.
I wish
I had the answers, but I don't.
All I do know is that we have to put ourselves
first. We have to take care of our health, our bodies, those things within our
control, as best we can.
We have to let go of people who are toxic and who bring
harm in hard times.
In the same breath, we need to know the difference between intentional harm and
harm as a result of mental distress. There are many good eggs out there who are
spiraling through this mess and that spiral looks and feels like something it really
isn't if you take the time to see past the rants and look at the person behind them.
The world is at its highest recorded numbers of mental illness, suicide and addiction use.
Keep this in mind when you're operating out in the world. If you have love to give, radiate it.
If you need love, ask for it. We're all still in this together, whether we like it or not.
