Whilst the anxious worrier cries and panics
The small whisper of optimism speaks up Take it one day at a time Treat yourself like a friend Set a new rhythm of life, for this is temporary. Grow Learn Rest Weave your days with intentionality Becoming aware of what is worth your energy And what will drain you Dust off the book you said you’d read when you have more time Create a zen space immerse yourself in the story walk with the characters Feel their joy, feel their pain shut out the world. Bend and stretch Skip and jump Run and walk Breathe in the air Thank the body that is your house, your home Meditate and pray Create community in new ways ‘Knocking on the doors’ of those you love Check in Take care Listen and be there Effort is a reflection of interest Take heart For when we are released When surrealism is no longer our reality perhaps we will all be more peaceful Kinder Filled with gratitude for the things we lost How blessed and beautiful will your first hug be Returning to the arms of the Comforters Gatherings will be full of joy and laughter Even the tedious meetings will be light-giving Together we will be again But until then…
