Digging for Courage: Feeling Myself for the Ambushes

We watched a new movie, Onward, and a new show, Tales from the Loop, in the last couple days. Both have dead od missing parents. I cried at Onward, but Tales is a bit too what’s-going-on for me to care about the characters.

I’m back in my skin this weekend. The first couple weeks of the isolation orders were tough on me and my sons. I didn’t know how to move forward or respond to the madness around us.

A new self-improvement challenge has brought me back to trusting and loving myself. I’m taking on the Wim Hof 40-Day Quarantine Challenge and feeeling the positive effects in significant ways.

My focus is back on finding answers within. Getting quiet, looking inward, and seeking wisdom from God. The warm sunshine inspired me to take my boys and a couple of their friends out to a soccer field to kick around. It’s an intentional enacting of the extremes of my life: lying still and focusing on nothing, then taking that energy and inspiration out to go full speed.

It is a joyous thing to rediscover myself.

God bless and thank you for reading,
