A sanctuary, a refuge, a feeling of home – we have all been experiencing these emotions about our domicile while being sequestered these past two months. For some it is a time when they have reconnected to their authentic selves and to family members; to others – it is a time of deep despair having been alone for days on end and the initial comfort of being in their own skin has all but dwindled away. Me personally, I thrive in the quietude, the flows from this perspective washing over me like a single wave.
We all dream about life returning as we knew it . And, it will, soon. So I am recommending that during this ‘slow to return to life’ process that you take the time to reflect on what you need. Sometimes all you need is a heartfelt hug from a kind acquaintance – and that may not possible yet, or dare I say ever again? But there are other needs that you can reach for that may, this time, be fruitful in that you will be approaching them from a new mental outlook. Perhaps your former life was jammed to the hilt with a thousand items that needed tending. Were you scheduled to the point of exhaustion – moving from one thing to another without giving depth of thought to any one thing? Maybe this is the time to reorder that drainage pipe.
There is more common sense and humanity being shown now. An awakening is happening. I hope in these coming days that you will find what you need. Simple things are often profound reminders of what is important.
When the time comes – go out, go easy, go with a sense of purpose. And, remember…
“The great secret of getting what you need in life is to know what you need and believe that you can have it.”
~Norman Vincent Peale
