Top-O-The-Morning to you my lovelies. Time once again for #SoCS. Where the cool kids congregate to create. Linda set us up with Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “rest.” Use it any way you like. Enjoy! To join the fun and frolics, HERE are the rules and ping back.
I went through a resilience course yesterday and learned a new acronym VUCA = Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, Ambiguous. Pronounced voo-ka. Our world is living la vida VUCA fer sure. We were challenged to re-write for ourselves a VUCA 2.0, reframe the membrane so to speak. I went with Vulnerable, Unity, Calm, Ability. The discussion was around stuff we should know but often ignore. Self care was a central theme. So finally landing the plane REST. I need some rest and I will NOT feel guilty about getting some some. Ya know what I mean … minds outta the gutter folks. LOL. JK.
What I really liked is this notion buster that resilient people have things easy. Oh contraire! Quite the opposite. Pressure makes you resilient, to keep going through adversity. A few people did a share and WOW, just WOW. Proves you never know what someone else is going or has been through. Heroes and angels are among us.
Okay, now I will close with a musical interlude before you get on with your hopefully restful weekends. This song popped right up when I saw REST. I used it in my April A-Z for 2021. Need to get thinking about my 2022 theme.
As always, more to come.
