Find Grace

This pandemic has brought up all types of old patterns and responses to stress that I thought I had overcome. I wonder if anything like that is happening to you. I expected that I would be very productive at this time.

I thought writing, eating more healthy, exercising, vigorously helping my son with studies, and being a pillar for my clients and my family would be my life.

Instead, I find myself, Netflixing a bit, getting frustrated with 7th-grade math, eating just what I can put together, and that being strong for others has left me sobbing a few times a week.

I cannot do it all, nor can I do it all well.

This pandemic has been a lesson in grace for myself. I also need to remember to extend grace to others.

The ambient stress that we all feel all the time ebbs and flows. Some days I am underwater, and other days I am floating in calm waters.

Whether your story reflects mine or is much harder-remember grace, we are all grieving, trying to calm ourselves, doing our best.

If you need support, I ask that you reach out.

I may have days where I am floundering, but we can flounder together.
