And Exhale...

Wanna know why I didn’t say ‘inhale’?  Because a friggin pandemic is going on people!!  LOL.  But seriously, can we all just take a step back, take a breath, and let the temperature come down about three thousand degrees? 

The election is over, the votes have been counted, and it’s time we all got on with the business of being ONE human race.  Being kind to one another, listening a bit more and shouting at one another less.  Finding something in common with those across the aisle, street, or country, rather than lobbing verbal grenades to incite a response.

Take a breath.

This has been undoubtedly the strangest of my 49 years on the planet earth and I’m sure you all can join me in saying that I’m not exaggerating the term ‘unprecedented’ when describing 2020.  So can we all just take a moment this holiday season (can’t be believe I just used that phrase, will blame my spouse for starting in with the Christmas music already, lol) and remember it’s a time for giving: of our hearts, of ourselves, and maybe, just maybe, a bit of forgiveness to others for what they may have said or done.

Take a breath.

​We need some healing.  As individuals.  As a nation.  As a world.  But it starts with each of us, as individuals.  Just one person at a time.  Won’t you join me?
