One Year Ago Today
Where were you one year ago today (march 10, 2020)? I recall just hearing of lock downs and wondering it that would happen to us living in quiet northern Vermont. There was fear, apprehension, and a little excitement in the air. I started to wonder if the lock down happened did it apply to me? By that I mean, was I willing to abide by this or think I was above the virus and rules did not really apply to me! I like the saying “I may not be much but it is all I think about!” Am I really that important? This is a great question to ask when we are in conflict with others. If we are thinking pretty highly or proud about ourselves we will approach conflict this way and our essence will ooze into the conversation so that even if our word are conciliatory we will not come across that way. I try to examine this in myself before I enter into a difficult conversation and find they go much better if I am seeing myself properly.
