You wait. Knowing it is not lethal or contagious.
And while you wait practice staying away from things that reflect back to you and instead look outward.
Notice stuff. Notice the scenarios that play out in others. Take a second look at those people who stand behind the counters or on the street corners holding their signs. Stop and notice kids playing. Listen to the sounds around you. Shut your eyes when you eat ice cream. Bury your face in a whole bouquet of flowers and inhale. Do a crossword puzzle and give your brain a break.
All these things feed your soul. Why? How? Because there is a great big good world out there that hums right along and welcomes your observations as well as your participation.
And sooner or later contentment aligns itself in your habits.
In contentment happiness reigns supreme. A cape couldn't hurt...
🎶For everything there is a season… turn turn turn🎶
