Breathe

For most of us 2020 has been indescribable.

We welcomed the beginning of a new decade with open arms and it punched us in the face.

Lives were upended.

Lives were lost.

 Systems disrupted.

Change reigned.

But now as we face September it’s time to let go. To not white knuckle our way through and wait for things to go back to the way they were.

They won’t.

It’s time to surrender. To accept where we are now. What choices have been made and can’t be unmade. You can still do amazing things.

Be a light in someone’s dark times. Think up solutions to problems (and we have plenty of them both big and small).

You are more powerful than you think.

But first you have to take that important step.

Stop holding your breath.

 Breathe.
