Can You Find the Silver Lining?

These storm clouds are rather frightening.  Our world hasn't seen anything like this in over one hundred years.  Several states announced they are now closed until further notice.  Our lives somehow turned upside down.  We are social creatures who enjoy being connected.  These social distancing guidelines now in place can be challenging to accept, especially when they keep us from visiting the elderly who appear the most vulnerable.  Can the silver lining be found in the clouds?

There are always options, even in the worst of conditions.  The silver lining is always there.  I choose to look up.  Have you ever considered that these storms are here to get our attention?  Some of us have been sleeping throughout our lives.  All that thunder rumbling in the middle of the night can be unnerving unless we find the music in the chords.  Perhaps our silver lining is our opportunity to see the good in the challenges.  I challenge you to find your silver lining today.  When you find it, make sure to be thankful.  Gratitude makes any rainy day better.  Have a great day.
