When life throws you lemons, what do you do? [Considering my anaphylactic allergy to all things citrus, I RUN LIKE HELL.] The ‘correct’ answer is: you make lemonade! Isn’t that sweet? The fact is, sometime life presents you with stuff that seems like it will crush you and turn you into a pulp. You have a choice in how you respond.
So when someone you care about is facing a serious healthy issue – completely out of your control – KNOW that there is a way to contribute to that person’s well being. You can BE caring and compassionate. Offer up whatever you can to help. Offer a shoulder, an ear. Offer two arms for a hug. Offer your love and support. Offer your strength.
That’s what I did today. I recognize that I have a gift to offer to others in their time of need. It doesn’t have to consume or deplete me. I don’t have to put my life on hold to be there to lend a hand. I just have to be me. Sending healing energy your way!
Lesson Learned.
