Weekend Wisdom: Oh what a year this week has been.
I’m starting 2021 next week.
I’ll be counting this week as “things that belong in 2020” and starting over again next week.
If you are outraged, I am sending you peace.
If you are overwhelmed, I am sending you a deep breath (or two or ten).
If you don’t know what to do next, I am sending you permission to take care of yourself. Take a walk, a bath, call a friend, rest. Do what you need to do to take care of you so you can take care of everything else.
If you are sad, I want to share words from a dear friend. I reached out to comfort her, but she comforted me instead by saying this,
“As a historian, I know this is how change happens. Society usually has to be shaken.
And have no fear—there will ALWAYS be more good in the world than bad.
We’ll be just fine.” – Christine Platt
