"When the big things feel out of control ...
focus on what you love right under your nose."
Charley Mackesy
Charley Mackesy is the author of The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and the Horse, which is filled with inspiration and simple kindness. It presents, somewhat, as a children's book with sketches and hand lettering, but it is filled with uplifting thoughts. (It would make a lovely surprise host/hostess gift.)
Dreams are important, but it is even more vital to live fully in the present, no matter how it appears. If we feel overwhelmed, there is some thought or keepsake right in front of us waiting for engagement. We can be thankful for what we see out our window or healthy lungs to breathe deeply or a friend just a text or phone call away.
We have the choice to sit in the heavy darkness or wander towards a brighter light. As restrictions about quarantine lessen, visit Lowe's or Home Depot looking at all of the flowers waiting to burst. Browse in Michael's to get creative juices flowing. Go to a park embracing all of the sites and animal activities. Focus on something held dear and healthy emotions will be rekindled.
