Have you seen the meme that caught my eye?:
I really wish I weren't living through a major historical event right now!
I feel that! But here is the thing I am realizing — historic events are happening on a very regular basis. We aren’t living through the first pandemic (nor will it be the last). This isn’t the first time we have had political upheaval and polarization (nor will it be the last). This isn’t the first time an unpredictable war has rocked a nation (and unfortunately, it won’t be the last).
I could go on and on. But you get the point. We are living through historic events. As have others, through every other historic event.
Sometimes, I wonder how future generations will look back on us, what we are going through, and how we went through it. Will they believe they could have done better? Will they think we learned anything? I wonder….
We get caught up in worrying about events all around us. And that can lead to anxiety, frustration, and inaction. Nothing changes.
As a client told me years ago, “Its not like I’m not doing anything! I am worrying!” My client felt like that was doing something. Indeed, her brain was spinning. But nothing was changing. Nothing was happening.
How DO you find calm in these crazy times? We talk about it in this episode of the Thriveology Podcast. Listen below.
