72 Welcome! Check out our ideas! Pull it out! & Pass it around!
THE WHOLE WORLD IS IN HIS HANDS As we re-emerge from lockdown, we have a lot to process and decisions to make about what we carry forward with us and what we leave behind. What are our priorities to consider as we move ahead? Two things we have recognised are: The importance of caring for others
The importance of caring for ourselves
Living in our bubbles highlighted how important the people in our lives are. We treasured those connections via technology with Nan and the video messages from the cousins. We talked with our neighbours over the fence and longed for real, in-person hugs. We also became very aware that we live in a connected world, as we saw the pandemic spread across the globe. Living in our bubbles also highlighted how important it is to care for ourselves. As we faced uncertainty and anxiety, we may have learnt to slow down and take a deep breath. We may have enjoyed a slower pace of life and the chance to reclaim Saturdays back from the rush of driving our children to sports games. We may have discovered the things that really matter to us. In this issue of the WAY2GO Mag we explore some practical suggestions for caring for others and caring for ourselves.
