Focus on the good

The last couple of weeks have been different than ever before. For all of us. It is not usually something we can say: all of us are going through the same challenging circumstance, Of course, each of us is having our own experience, but we are all living through this pandemic.

It is easy to focus on the fear. To watch and read all the news we can and worry about things we cannot control. But where does that get us??

Instead, I challenge you to focus on the good... the hope. What is the good you ask? Where is the hope? Just stop and look around you!

  •  Communities are coming together
  •  Strangers are helping strangers
  •  People are checking in with friends or family they haven't talked to for a long time
  •  Businesses are giving their products away, and finding new ways to use their resources to help those in need
  •  You have time on your hands.... time to reflect and connect on a deeper level
  •  You have time to have real conversations
  •  You have an opportunity to spend quality time with your kids
  •  Spring is springing! Spring brings new hope and new life with it
I challenge you to add to this list! What good and hopeful things are YOU seeing around you? Write your answers in the comments! For me, I have challenged myself to post something that I am thankful for EVERY day. It is a way to remember those things we are grateful for and change our focus. You can find it on Instagram and Facebook. Please join me!

Blessings,
Kara
