We must never loose that “little boy” inside of us. As we progress through life, we sometimes build a wall, a facade ; to protect ourselves, to represent our position, to demonstrate our capabilities or even to hide insecurities.
Perhaps in search for happiness , fullfillment ?
But happiness was when we ran barefooted in the soccer field, climbed tress and skinny dipping in a river. I believe most of us missed those days ; and should incorporate moments of our past in to our present lives.
We do not need to climb trees today but we can still have a bottle of wine and enjoy loud unrestricted laughter with our good old friends of yesteryears.
The popular votes showed only a slim victory in this divisive election.
Regardless, the better man won and DIGNITY is now at least restored to a country that shouts out loud about democracy and claims to be a land of the free.
May the lies, hypocrisy, bullying, stupidity and discrimination stop.
As we forge ahead into the new normal era, we will need to redefine our niche and strengths again.
We will need to adapt, change and re-change many times to achieve a balance on what our new routines should be like.
Our past strengths could be our new weaknesses today. Be prepared to leave some of our “old me” behind. Create a NEW-ME …..a one that is stronger and compassionate as well as living a life of mutual respect and empathy.
