Everyone is talking about IT!

  


 Once upon a time Everyone was happy. There were no potholes in the road and a Starbucks at every corner on the way home from work, and a game or a good movie waited for us on tv after a good dinner with family.

 And then....

 Everyone was talking about IT. 

The whole country and soon the world was a-buzz. I would have found the trend sadly amusing, if it were not so scary.  It was as if NO ONE knew of IT before. But no matter.  Even if we had we had ignored it, we could not any longer.  Because everyone was talking about IT. And we became very afraid.

We began to blame and hate. Everything was wrong. It was as if only yesterday, before IT, no one was being murdered in our inner cities, our children were not being neglected in foster homes or abandoned or kidnapped by traffickers, no one was dying prematurely and at increasingly alarming rates from diabetes, obesity, suicide and from many other stress related illnesses. We had not been concerned that our children did not play outside anymore, nor did they know the history of their own family or town in which they lived.
But of course, not only had all that existed, but these issues had been growing globally and at unprecedented rates.  

 And then IT arrived. And overnight we became an enlightened population -- not about everything that was wrong -- but about IT. We were sorely afraid. We were now wishing and hoping and waiting for someone or something outside ourselves to fix IT as well as us, our country and the world. 

Everyone is still talking about IT. 
….  as if there is nothing else.

What if...?

We never mentioned IT for 24 hours?  for 48 hours? 

We began talking about A NEW IT!? 

   We find a NEW VISION? A NEW PERSPECTIVE?



 Instead, let's tune in, tap in, and turn on to the IT within.
Stop for a moment. Listen.

Feel IT.

  1. I completely agree with what you wrote about “it”!! I just wrote something similar on my Facebook page. Very much on the same level! Hi 🙋🏻‍♀️ I’m Donna from Nextdoor. I noticed that you do doggies nails too. That’s super great! I do kitties. And I’ve been living in an RV for the past 5 years. But times up for me. God blessed me with an adorable little duplex. It feels good! I write as well and about overcoming. Maybe we could meet?
