@defg,

I am so tired of bad news I get the alerts too. Why can’t there be some good news.
My mom loves her and they are a year apart in age.

May she RIP. 🌹

Temps dropped all day and cold in the ‘burgh like Oz.🥶 Was up all night, hot, cold, coughing. Took covid test today and it was negative so I either have the flu or a very bad cold. Laid on the couch all day, took a nap, made grilled cheese for dinner and paid a couple bills. If I can sleep tonight, tomorrow should be better. Husband is a tad better.

Controversial end to the game last night. A penalty should have been called but was not and we lost.😝 Found out today that one of our long time, best players had a second stroke, he is only 35. Mini stroke but still a stroke.😞 His last one was eight years ago and he came back in two months and has been playing since. Sure hope this is the same.🙏

Hello Sheba,
Bad news – Christine McVie has passed away. She was 79 and passed after a short illness. I’ve always loved her voice, even more than Stevie Nick’s voice. So sad about this and going to listen to some of her great songs right now.
Rest in Peace, Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac.
😢😭😔

Putting Our Tools to Use

We have all built up a toolbox of unique tools to help us navigate life, we just need to use them.
Every craftsperson has a toolbox full of tools and a number of techniques to help them bring inspiration into form. In the same way, throughout our lives, we have discovered our own life tools and techniques — the ways and means that have helped us create our lives up to this point. Sometimes we forget about the tools and skills we’ve acquired, and we wonder why we aren’t moving forward. At times like these, it might just be a matter of remembering what we already know, and rediscovering the tools we already have at our disposal.

In the process of becoming who we are and creating our lives, we have all gone through the experience of being inspired to do something and then finding the tools we needed to do it. If we look back, we may be able to remember that we used, for example, the tool of writing every day in order to clarify our intentions. We may also have used the tools of ritual, meditation, or visualization to make something happen. In addition, we may have been fueled by a new idea about how the universe works, which is what gave us the inspiration to use these tools.

In order for ideas to be powerful, they must be imbued with the energy of our engagement with them, and in order for tools to be effective they must be put to use. This sounds obvious, but often we fall into the habit of thinking we are engaging with ideas and using tools by virtue of the fact that we are reading about them, or listening to other people talk about them. In truth, using our tools is a very personal action, one we must take on behalf of ourselves. Like artists, we are each unique and no two of us will receive the same inspiration, nor will we bring it into form in the same two ways. To discover the truth of our own vision, we must take action by remembering our tools and putting them to use. AMEN to that! ✨✨😎
