Fantastic Writing as usual, Karen. It’s definitely something to be intentional about or remember. Be Neutral & open to the experience. Almost my entire family is together to celebrate a Simcha (Celebration). There are different personalities, ages & our rhythms are not the same. I want to enjoy the next few days, take some sacred pauses, be present & calm. I will need to pull some tools from my toolbox.
I will connect with you once I adjust to home as I have been gone over a month.
Hi Karen, another great Lift. During the Covid experience, I stopped reading the newspaper and listening to news-It made me depressed. So I decided that I am going to take care of myself, my husband, my 5 kids, their spouses and my beautiful grandkids (number 7 is due in October) and let what else is going on put it in the Lords hands and ask him to let me know when I need to work on that. Now, I occasionally read the paper and listen to news. If it doesn’t interest me or serve me, I go onto the next article or turn off the TV. Life is so much enjoyable when you choose happiness and tune out all the garbage. ❤️❤️❤️
If only I had that solid attitude about the DMV - nightmare at anytime! Anyway, I know it was a word- play on life, and I think I’m understanding this the older (maybe not wiser) I get! Nice writing Karen! ❤️

Thanks Julie! It’s especially challenging to be ‘neutral’ with family. But also rewarding. Enjoy your time together & safe travels.

Love that! It’s so important to pay attention to what we allow into our ‘lifespace’. And to prioritize what truly matters most to us.
