Message

Making this the new normal

Obvious foolishness of people who refuse and resist
Defying stay at home orders
Churches meeting in person
People still crowding beaches
And so on.

But noticing my own subtle resistance
Still focusing on what I’m missing
Concerts
Gym

I don’t want to learn Zoom
I don’t want to learn how to make a homemade face cover

Resistance causes stress

Resistance causes fatigue
Staying at home is actually not that hard
But I’m feeling worn out and anxious.
And I’m worried
Eventually we might just decide we can’t do this any more and give up.

So to keep this up for the long haul
(I’m thinking end of June at the earliest)
We need to practice acceptance
This is normal
This is OK
I can do this
I can be fulfilled
I can stay connected in new ways
I can be find new ways to do and enjoy the things I love
I can find the gifts in this new way of living.
And I can wait
For this to resolve
As long as it takes.
Breathe…

See you tomorrow at 1pm.
