HEY! Quarantine day number WHO KNOWS. Writing two blogs in one day? Yep, why not? Juices are flowing, mind is working, and I’m grateful for that. I hope you all are doing well. This might be short, might be long… again, who knows?! Some of us have all the time in the world these days. Flipside, some like our frontline workers do not. Thank you for your services. You will never know how much everyone appreciates you during these crucial times. I know that we should not be complaining about our free time whatsoever. I’m making light to those that might be temporarily unemployed, not earning what they normally would, or completely laid off. My heart goes out to all scenarios.
It’s always good to find something that is good through the bad. I’ve always tried to train my mind to thinking like that. For example, things are awful BUT here’s what can come out of it. So let’s take this situation right now. Covid-19. I hate even typing it that’s how much I hate this virus. However, if I kept my train of thought of just pure hatred my whole world would be dark. Instead, let’s talk some positives that can come out of it. If any of your loved ones have been a victim of it, I’m sorry, and I know it probably is not easy to see any good- and I understand! I’m praying for you. You aren’t alone. For those that aren’t currently affected by it and might be at home, here’s my thoughts.
While we are at home or don’t have much to do, we might just find new talents. Whether it’s dancing, singing, knitting, cooking, decorating, or in my case, writing. Sometimes we find our talents when it’s least expected. The definition of talent is “Natural, aptitude, or skill.” Now, we might not be the definition of that, but in our own ways, you could learn to just be happy with what YOU think is talent. The world is your oyster and of all times, this is the time to maybe find your pearl. (Oyster, pearl…get it?) Don’t worry if you didn’t get it- I really just ran with it so there is that.
Point of this whole blog is, now is the time to find you. Of course everyday is a good day to find you, but now more than ever. You may even want to become a nurse or doctor during all of this. You might have an urge to help others. To those to have time, think about what you might have been wanting to do and are really interested in. Practice it and research it.
I found I love to write through all of this. I love to share stories, and reach out to people whatever the topic might be. I know when I read, I relate, and I disagree. That’s how the world turns and I like that!
Finding what you love, and doing it possibly everyday, or even as just a hobby… could potentially be SUCH a great feeling.
I hope you find you, if you haven’t already! Hey, you got this.
I also hope you are healthy, safe, and if possible at home.
With love,
Abby
