Refresh
For many of us 2024 was a challenging year. So far, many of us may also feel that 2025 has been less than smooth.
We may be uncertain about political outcomes. We may not be confident in the economy. Proposed changes to government regulations and funding may potentially affect us.
All of this uncertainty may leave us feeling insecure about the present and the future. Our fear can sap the joy out of everyday life.
Today’s message doesn’t suggest that we ignore any issues of concern. It rather implies that we need to keep any concerns balanced against the many good and wonderful parts of everyday life.
It’s time for me (and perhaps for you) to hit the refresh button. When I reset my perspective to include all aspects of life, I can see that many lovely parts of my daily life remain strong and unchanged. I have loving relationships. I have satisfying interests and hobbies. My basic needs are being regularly met. I’m open to new ideas and am learning new things regularly. All this adds up to a very good life, regardless of any uncertainty going on in the larger picture.
Please reflect and share. Would you benefit from refreshing your perspective?
