Perspective

Perspective
Life has a way of showing us perspective. What we think is okay or has become acceptable is really not until something usually big happens to change our focus. Today, well the blinders have fallen off and we are seeing things clearer than ever before. They fell off a week or two ago. What once seemed important no longer is. What we took for granted we now cherish. What we accepted has now become intolerable. Simple things have become profound. Drama has become a waste of time. Love and kindness are breaking us open to the core. Creativity is coursing through our veins. We have awaken to our life. Colors are crisper, smells are stronger, love is deeper, and compassion is palpable. Look all around you. Despite the fear and stress, there are smiles, there are neighbors taking the time to wave and say hi, there are strangers making sure others are taken care of, and there is an understanding that we can all do something to help not only each other but our world. We are in this together and that perspective is priceless.
