I needed to read and hear this too (I love that you are reading these as well as posting the text, by the way)!
Lately, I've been catching myself thinking "nothing really matters... we're all going to die, anyway..." and I run away to the nearest distraction. Food, tv, social media... that's not enough anymore.
Nine years ago, my partner suffered a massive stroke. He spent 2 months in hospital. When he was discharged home, I was his sole carer. I did not know what to do; I could not fix this. I had some home help and learned a new routine. Even so, it took a couple of months before I realized the best I can do, ever, is choose to take the next step with love. Even a small thing can make a big difference. I learned to include myself, too. Even after he died 16 months later, that philosophy kept me going in a good way. It still works, until I get the "nothing matters, death" blah blahs. The "what's the point" boohoos.
So thank you, Scott, for asking the question and staying with it, and coming back with answers that cover as wide a spectrum as possible. I don't have to run away and distract myself. I can if I choose to. Or I can hang out with people who put love first, and who can hold darkness and light. Face it all, because this life is what I have right now. If this is also a distraction... it's a good one. Feels like a step forward, to me.
My God I needed to hear this deeply needed to hear this. I've been so there with You Scott. Thank You for the blatant truth and I agree 💯. Bigger Love back to You !❤️❤️❤️
Real and Raw! I love that you say things most people are too self conscious to express. Too worried to say out loud with their own lips!
(That’s me … come to think about it!) lol
You rock brother! Thank you! 🙏
Thank you, Tommy. Lots of love to you! 💜🙏💜
Trying again!
