This week has been pretty good. Stress hasn’t been stressing me so much. Lack of money has just been ‘another day’. My bestie, Beca, arrived back in Bondi – just having her around is all kinds of greattttt.
I enjoyed a couple of ace runs (where I felt like my feet weren’t touching the ground!) and finally got my winter-skin out in the welcome return of the sun.
I’ve been kind to myself, been chilled, brushed my little problems to one-side and looked at the bigger picture with hope in my heart.
No big news – but when the goings good that’s the kinda ‘news’ I’m more than happy with blogging about.
On the other side of the coin; I’ve seen some people butt heads this week. It made me think about how important it is to try and see issues from every angle.
Everyone has their side of a story, everyone has feelings, everyone has different ways of dealing with things … nobody is perfect.
The more we remind ourselves to think beyond our first reaction, our first thought (which can often be flippant/ in defence) – the sooner we can think more clearly and get through a tricky situation.
Today I found a great article which discusses developing empathy.
It’s well worth a read, especially if you’re in a sticky spot.
It makes the valid point ”we’re all striving for happiness, peace and love”. Check it out!.
Thank you for reading. Hope you have a great week ahead.
