This is our Opportunity
I call times of trouble, opportunity. I think we all have gone through times when we have complained and fussed about hard times. We probably learned that those things are not effective and can build up anger in us, cause us to look for people to blame or even lead to depression. The way we see and handle our "opportunities" will literally change the outcome for us individually.
I have seen so many positive things that people are doing to help people to cope with this pandemic. People are reading stories online, like some celebrities, Ms. Mo Story Teller and even my daughter Tori. People have shared there musical and dance talents. Young People are grocery shopping for older people to keep them out of the stores. People are finding creative ways to still work at home and to connect with other people. The Shenandoah Academy of Dance has been holding classes on Zoom!!
If we keep a positive outlook and seek for opportunities to stay busy and do some good, we will see miracles happen in our lives. Why be miserable when we can feel amazing for finding a better way. The world has faced challenging times throughout history. This is our opportunity to write our history for our families and the world to see.
Aren't we so blessed to have the resources and technology that we have? Use it to do good, to see the good others are doing and to take advantage of free resources. I am adding some links below for a few of those. Please add to the list and share what you know!
The first one listed is a place I recommend if you want to hear stories of people who rose above their hard circumstances and took advantage of their opportunities. Some are true and some are fantasy. There are some to listen to and some you can read for free.
