For what it’s worth, and in case it helps....⁣
⁣
I want to share a few thoughts on how. This year has thrown so much at all of us. And it keeps bringing in the question 𝘏𝘖𝘞: ⁣
⁣
❔How do we deal with this? ⁣
❔How will I live with this?⁣
❔How do I get through this? ⁣
❔How can I accomplish this? ⁣
❔How do I heal from this?⁣
⁣
I wrote a cue card message to myself (swipe ➡️) at the start of 2020, one of my new year's mantras still posted above my desk. Little did I know the extent to which I would turn to it. ⁣
⁣
And now today’s thoughts on 𝘩𝘰𝘸, for what it’s worth, in case it helps...⁣
⁣
𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻⁣
⁣
It's a lot to take in sometimes.⁣

I know.⁣
⁣
I hear you.⁣
⁣
(And now, the snow ❆)⁣
⁣
What lies ahead.. we don't know.⁣
⁣
We never have.⁣
⁣
But especially now...⁣
⁣
Especially now.⁣
⁣
⁣
When I can't see the way through⁣
⁣
Instead I:⁣
⁣
I look within ↓⁣
⁣
And I look up ↑⁣
⁣
Guidance from both directions.⁣
⁣
The way⁣
⁣
is the how.⁣
⁣
Repeat:⁣
⁣
The way = the how.⁣
⁣
And the how is the heart. ⁣
⁣
Again. ⁣
⁣
The how = the heart. ⁣
⁣
And the breath⁣
⁣
The breath⁣
⁣
Is all⁣
⁣
That links one moment to the next. ⁣
⁣
How we move⁣
⁣
through uncertainty.⁣
⁣
How we breath⁣
⁣
into the unknown.⁣
⁣
How we show up⁣
⁣
For ourselves.⁣
⁣
For each other.⁣
⁣
How we care⁣
⁣
How we love⁣
⁣
So we don't feel alone.⁣
⁣
⁣
When we know so little else⁣
⁣
This is the how⁣
⁣
This is way. ⁣
⁣
Take care of your heart.⁣
⁣
Take care of each other’s.⁣
⁣
⁣
And if you're feeling alone, please reach out. ⁣
⁣
🤍⁣
