Even though I'm an optimist, I've really struggled with finding more silver linings as of late. The weather is miserable, we still have three weeks of lockdown, and everyone's patience is starting to wear more than a bit thin. Last week was especially challenging because my Grandmother fell, broke her hip, and had to go in for emergency surgery and the next day my Aunt had to have two toes amputated. I've certainly been tested and while I've certainly been shifting my perspective, I haven't gotten to a place of understanding quite yet. I don't think I'm alone, but I certainly feel more alone. This past weekend I needed a break from the monotony, so I drove over to a neighboring town and explored - distantly, of course - and it really brightened up my day! That simple routine shakeup really boosted my spirits and gave me the jolt I needed to get me back on a more half-glass-full kind of path. This is a spa week for me so I'm only looking for the positives!
