This year has very much felt like the middle section of this arrow.
At times I've struggled with the isolation, juggling working from home while home schooling my nine year old son; trying to be a wife, mother, business owner, friend, contributor to my community... at times it's all been too much trying to keep all the balls in the air while dealing with changes and financial stresses that this pandemic has dished up. And to add to all this my son has gone through testing and had a diagnosis that's going to require a lot from my husband and I. So, right now, life feels like I'm in the eye of the storm, or the messy part of the arrow.
At times like these it's often really hard to keep perspective; it's hard to be present and it can often be challenging to connect with ourselves and those around. But things straighten out, and our arrow will fly straight again... we just need to navigate the messy parts of life.
Happy navigating and may we be gentle on ourselves and each other as we unravel our messes.
