I hope we never take what we have for granted.

So much has changed for so many of us.

We may look differently at how we parent. Or how we have focused with our kids.

We may think differently about our job and how much time we spent in pointless meetings, or all the extra hours we worked.

We might be spending more time giving attention to our family and wonder — why didn’t we do that before?

We may realize how little time we spent outside — or if we did, how much we miss it now!

We may have taken our jobs, doctor appointments, grocery stores, date nights and so much more for granted.

What we are going through now will change us all.

We will appreciate an evening out so much more.

We will appreciate our kids’ teachers more.

We will think differently about what we say yes or no to at work.

We may have those difficult, harder conversations.

Start now.

Don’t take any more moments for granted.

Appreciate all the things you had and all the new areas of focus now.

What will you do differently?

Embrace this pause

Resilience and flexibility in a new world
