      Thanks for this - must be St. Theresa!

      She was a small thing (person) doing small things with great love!

        Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.

            We can't control everything....

            Don't worry about what you can't control.

            Our focus and energy needs to be on the things we CAN control.

            Attitude, effort, focus - these are the things we can control.

                  You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. But the most important thing is, even if we’re apart…I’ll always be with you.

                    "And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

                    Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.

                    With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy."

                      This pandemic experience is a massive experiment in collective vulnerability.

                      We can be our worst selves when we’re afraid, or our very best, bravest selves. In the context of fear and vulnerability, there is often very little in between because when we are uncertain and afraid our default is self-protection.

                      We don’t have to be scary when we’re scared. Let’s choose awkward, brave, and kind. And let’s choose each other.

                            Adversity is something that all of us have to deal with.
                            Through the challenge of dealing with adversity, with hope and optimism and courage,
                            Spirit is rewarded with that.
                            And I think that's true with life.
                            Adversity makes you smart and strong.

                              Something of sweetness and substance...

                              "We die. All of us — atoms to atoms, stardust to stardust, the mountain to the sea — you and I. The dual awareness of our improbable life and our inevitable death is what allows us to animate the interlude with love and beauty… It is what puts into perspective just how fleeting and vacant and self-embittering all of our angers and blames and resentments are in the end — what beckons us, instead, to leave something of sweetness and substance in the mouth of the world."
