Resiliency

I felt inspired to write about something that I noticed (and maybe you did, too).

You see, one of my favorite cities that I have visited is Boston. Sadly, we all know about the recent tragedy. My heart and prayers go out to those who have been affected by this recent event.

Through all of the chaos and confusion of this and many other recent events, I can’t help but notice the resiliency of the human spirit.

Resiliency of the first responders who ran toward the danger.

Resiliency of the patients, who despite their pain, are moving ahead.

Resiliency of the families, some of whom are grieving, and others who are trying to find a new normal.

While life is forever changed, they are an inspiration.

I pause in awe at how resilient we can be.

At times, like these, how we must look inside, into our higher selves, to rise above …

…the distractions

…the tragedy

…the unplanned

And when we do, what and who will emerge is far beyond what we could have ever dreamed.

“We must be willing to give up the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.”
