Life's Simple Lesson

Our minds are filled with a myriad emotions, thoughts, and distractions. 

AI is here to save the day, end the earth, change humans, we don't know. The US is a living breathing circus. There are millions who won't eat today. Senseless bullies causing famine and death. And we don't even know what to say, think, do, that won't offend someone. 

I get it. 

I am fortunate to be in the top 1% living in the top 1% country - an awesome place called Canada. Some days i want to help everyone; others I want to hide under the covers between sleeves of cookies. Did our ancestors feel this way during world wars? Have the technologies changed to protect the narrative? 

One of the wisest pieces of advice I've ever gotten but often forgotten is to just do something that will help someone. The problems of the planet are just too big. The expectations of this relationship; am I wearing the right pants; do I look fat in this sweater; will I make my numbers this quarter are in many says so unimportant. 

What's the point of all this? Maybe it's as simple as enjoying this moment, right now.

Lend a hand in some way to someone may be the message we need to hear most?
