It has been over a year since COVID-19 was declared a pandemic. As the world moves forward, Lions and Leos sing "Lean on Me" by @billwithers to remind everyone that where there's a need, there's a Lion to lean on. Watch now: 👀📽️➡️ https://t.co/3CfFtYf05v #LeanOnMe #WeServe

Get into the #habit of asking yourself, “Does this support 
the life I'm trying to create?”

[Stephen Colbert @StephenAtHome]

It’ll be a shame if history allows one horrific event on this president’s watch to overshadow all the other horrific events on this president’s watch.

[Brené Brown @BreneBrown]

This is what domestic terrorism looks like.
This is Donald Trump’s America.

Imagine the police response if these were Black people BREAKING INTO the Capitol.

If you don’t see white supremacy and a total threat to democracy when you see this, it’s because you don’t want to.

[Glennon Doyle @GlennonDoyle]

I just didn’t want to waste my ready.

I also needed to answer this question once and for all:

G: How do I know if I’m a writer?

[Tiny Buddha @tinybuddha]

I will forever be that person who gets excited when the sky is in pretty colors.

“Whether our writing now is intentional or simply a way to talk to the friends and family we miss so desperately, all of it acts as an important first step to the work that awaits us on the other side of this all.”

"When we relate directly in this way to the unwanted areas of our lives, the small, dark room of ego begins to be ventilated." Pema Chödrön on the brilliance of the seemingly counterintuitive Buddhist practices of tonglen.

There is enchantment in the creation process. But the true magic is when you do the brave thing and share it.
Thank you @ThisIsSethsBlog for allowing me to understand this.

Choose what’s good for your soul not just your ego

[Anne Lamott Quotes @AnneLamottQuote]

“Everyone is flailing around, winging it most of the time, trying to find the way out, or through, or up, without a map. This lack of instruction manual is how most people develop compassion, and how they figure out to show up, care, help and serve.” ~@ANNELAMOTT

CRAFT makes my coaching #families with #addiction help. A big piece of #CRAFT is helping the individual who comes in and who’s a total wreck from trying to help somebody stop using opiates or something, and finally somebody listens to her. Dr Robert Meyers https://t.co/KLVOE7hoK2

“The idea is to address drug use as a public health crisis more than as a criminal justice issue.” 👏🏽 https://t.co/Sh1HPfkfvn

“The future, the worry, the regret, the anxiety – these are all mental events that do not have to be part of the difficulty of life; these can be transcended here and now.” - Eckhart Tolle

[Tiny Buddha @tinybuddha]

"Be so proud of yourself for how you handled this year. I don’t know about you but I fought so many silent battles. I had to humble myself, wipe my own tears, pat myself on the back. I’m sure you had to do the same. Be proud of you." ~Priscilla A. Ransom

[Gabby Bernstein @GabbyBernstein]

Your prayer is being taken care of. Be patient, have faith and focus on feeling good.
