Good point Mark. I worked in the field of mental health for my entire career and helping folks search for small victories was so important. Too often we expect too much from both ourselves and others. Sometimes just getting out of bed in the morning is a win and it needs to be recognized as such. During these unstable times we need to be particularly attentive to our social contract. Kindness to those around us whether we love them or not, no matter how irritating they may be. Finding a sense of purpose after a significant disruption can be elusive.
Yes, a good reminder to encourage family members and friends who are struggling, as well as to be kinder to myself with regards to what I achieve (or don't). Thanks, Mark and Don.
Thanks for this share Mark. I know it speaks to so many. I, especially hear it today. Thanks for your generous spirit and taking the time to put this out.
