Be kind |
HK heartbeat -- Week #850 | 12 November 2019 |
Be kind to an animal. Be kind to strangers. Be kind to each other. Be kind to a troll. Be kind to a shopkeeper. Be kind to an extremist. Be kind to a bus driver. Be kind to a thug. Be kind to the other. Be kind to yourself. While I devote my attention to the tiniest of lives (Two and Three passed peacefully over the weekend), I am walking the talk and doing my best to move past feelings of failure. Losing two of the rescued newborn kittens I agreed to foster last week has been heartbreaking, but at least its something different to cry over. With a mix of sadness and joy, I appreciate the welcome distraction and a new daily routine while I focus on keeping One alive. Visit the calendar to find out what's on, find updates in the Facebook group and check with the organizers for last minute schedule changes. I am stepping back from the screen, including silent prayers with client materials delivered by email with gratitude to Central offices and reminding myself daily, sometimes hourly and occasionally by the minute: breathe. It's time to mind our own feelings -- the only way out is through. Harness the full force of tonight's full moon to direct all of our energy towards compassion and begin a dialogue. Our healing begins now. We are all in this together. There is no other. Listen to your own heartbeat. Naturally,
