Yeah.. Kick some ass.
We are a long time dead.
( For me.. connecting with peopl is a way I can perhaps " give back " It takes focus off myself and listening to others grief can be uplifting, in that I have experienced it myself, and when I see them eased a bit in anxiety perhaps. Loss, grief is universal, not only in BC. I volunteer at local Vinnies, and Information Centre. I have made some new friends there and we have " fun " mostly. Lately I have been thinking " Maybe I could do more ? " I also want to travel and see a few more places in Australia, plus I have a first grandchild too, I am enjoying seeing growing up.)
So, my health, my family, my community and beyond are my priorities now. Seems simple and obvious now, but looking back I used to be micro managing others and not looking at myself perhaps.
We really only need the simple things to keep living.. Food, shelter, air, water.. The rest is an added bonus, so we have a lot to be grateful for. It is easy to get caught up in what we do not have, than what we do.
As they say on SBS ..7 billion people; 7 billion stories.
