“These here are crazy times”
The lyrics and tune from the song, Onion Skin from Aussie band, Boom Crash Opera runs through my mind multiple times a day.
These here are crazy times
Try keeping heart in mind
From rolling off
The chopping board
Keep your chin up
And choke back the tears
Nobody has ever experienced anything like this before. The pandemic is a global catastrophe that hasn’t left anyone untouched.
It’s a disruption that will cause stress and suffering for millions, not just physically, but emotionally, mentally, and financially.
This is a time, not to crumble alongside the broken remains of what you thought was your reality, but to dig deeper to find your inner strength so you can rebuild for the new world.

Contraction is Needed for Expansion
Remember this as you move through each day. Life moves in cycles. There will always be bountiful summers and scarce dead winters.
The only way is the peaceful way of acceptance. You will be okay. You will pass through it. Dig deep and find your inner calm.
