"We must adjust our plans to succeed in light
of the changes that have occurred."
Andrea Goeglein
As weeks pass by, we continue to alter our life styles, routines, and expectations. Adding the Easter holiday into the controlled chaos challenges us even farther. There does not seem to be any shred of normalcy to the mix.
When we shake things up, totally reverse our normal actions, it seems easier to change. Perhaps in creating the new can be more exciting than morosely comparing the past to the present.
Wherever we find ourselves, seek at least one positive interaction to save as a memory. Young family: Instead of decorating a festive dinner table, make a fort and eat under the table. Teens in family: Challenge each to dress like a favorite musician or activist. College family: Set up Zoom or Skype and greet those who are far away; Retired folks: Do something ridiculously fun to trigger memories like coloring Easter Eggs or having a Chocolate Egg hunt. Whatever unfolds, fill the body, mind, and spirit with delight. Be grateful for the breath we breathe.
