I am delighted to share that The Elephant Journal has now made me a contributing author.
Last week they published my first article and I’ve committed to submitting more inspirational content.
I wish that our current pandemic wasn’t the topic source of so much support, but sadly it is our current reality and therefore I feel empowered to share as much inner wisdom that I can.
Here is the latest article:
Six Steps to Courageous Conversations During COVID-19
I walked out into my front courtyard on a sunny day this week. I wanted to breathe in the fresh air and check on the daffodils I planted last fall. Were they blooming? I smiled as I saw the cheerful flowers dancing in the breeze.
Then I looked up across the street. What was that I saw? Two men huddled together with their heads under the hood of a car. I knew they were neighbours and didn’t live in the same household. What about the recommended space of at least six feet between people who were not of the same family?
There was no evidence of ‘physical distancing’ for them.
One of them looked up and waved a friendly hello. The other kept his head down. I was shocked and upset at their lack of compliance to the guidelines for preventing the spread of the virus, COVID-19. I knew one of the men was over seventy years old, with health challenges. The other neighbour was still going to work at a Building Supply Store in town. He certainly would have had contact with many others.
What were they thinking?
Or was that the problem: They were not thinking.
