~Lets Us Be Calm Always~
Happy Tuesday y’all! I hope your week is starting happy and pleasant! The good thing is we have made it through one day and only have a few days left. Well, we have four days left until the weekend technically, but I think we can handle it. Even during these extremely challenging times, we all find a bright light that carries us through. Our strength, courage, and, pure determination is endless, which are all great qualities to have!
As we enter the second day of this week, we all could use some tranquil and calming thoughts! I hope the quote I am sharing with y’all today will serve a purpose for you and be beneficial as well! Once you read the quote and the rest of this post, I would really love to read your fabulous comments. All of you have such great insight on everything and I truly value your opinions!
I do not know about you, but this year is going by so fast. In a sense, it is great that the year is flying by, but the reason for why the year is going by so fast is pretty sad. Y’all know it is time to change the clocks this weekend, right? Fall back, which if I am not mistaken we actually again an hour sleep! Fall/Autumn is my favorite season because it is not too hot or too cold, the weather is just right!
We have been dealing with this pandemic all year and the end seems so far away. I think it is challenging to keep up a positive out look when so many are losing their lives or someone they love, or becoming very ill, or losing their jobs because of COVID-19. I still feel that if we all can continue following the very brilliant advice from top professionals, like Dr. Fauci, the Centers for Disease Control, and World Health Organization,we may have some hope to see the end of this pandemic and get back to our true normal!
Thank you for visiting my site today. I hope you enjoyed the quote I shared with y’all, and also hope you are having a great week so far. I promise that I will respond to all your comments as quickly as I can, but it might be after work. Please never forget that I am always sending y’all LOTS of love, comfort, support, and MANY positive vibes!
Always, Alyssa

You quote was inspiring and the picture reminds me of some time that my wife and I spent in Montana last summer. We are both ready to go back as it was the most relaxing and awe inspiring experience both of us have had. I can still remember driving through Glacier NP while she took pictures. Her focus was on the subject matter ie the mountains. Once she took her eyes off the mountain she did not enjoy the trip at all.
I feel this is an object lesson for all of us. There are pressures all around us. But when we have a goal or rather something to focus on we don’t worry about the things that scare us but focus our energies on the task at hand. It is only when we let our eyes wander from the goal that we can no longer feel comfortable with the pressures of this life. Our eyes focus on the scary picture in front of us rather than the footing that we are on and our mind tells us that we don’t like our current situation no matter the majesty of what we are experiencing. It’s the same with this virus issue. We can be scared of the unknown or utilize the tools that we have and move forward with our lives and not let the scariness of this event prevent us from living a good life within the confines of the practical advice given by knowledgeable people. This is a great time for introspection and reflection. It’s not like we don’t have the time to do so.
Albert Camus once quipped, “In order to understand the world one has to turn away from it on occasion.” These words ring so true. In order to completely understand what is going on in this world we need to turn away from the fear mongering that seems to be prevalent and cleanse our thoughts so we can be inspirational to someone else. This is our true calling.
