We are all on the same Path - Member Appreciation Week

Kieran000 May 27th, 2021

We all go through a lot of tough, happy, sad, exciting, fun, miserable, shocking and frustrating times in our lives. At times we may truly believe to ourselves that we are not good enough. That we are failures and are so close to giving up on everything. This is okay, we all are on the same path, weather it's passed us, or we are approaching it, we all will have those times.

Lets move to more present things, for now. One event everyone is going through right now is lockdown due to the pandemic. Each of us has been impacted greatly as we learn to live with the changes brought to keep ourselves and those around us safe. One of the biggest negative impacts of the pandemic has been on personal mental health due to the disruption of our usual routines and social support systems.

Our question to you is, how has the lockdown impacted you?

As the saying goes, every cloud has a silver lining. We learned valuable lessons and personal truths as we continue to cope with the pandemic. What lessons or personal truths have you learned while experiencing lockdown?

Here is a quote for you all.

Quoting Wayne Dyer, “We are all on the same path. We're just in different places along that path,”. Please take a moment to share your personal words of support to remind, comfort, or motivate one another through this trying time.

Thank you for reading down to here if you did. You're truly appreciated. Thank you @midwesterncalmseeker and @kdsyahirah for helping to make this post. And a huge thank you to @CheeryMango for setting this event up across the site! Finally, a enourmous thank you to all the members and listeners in this community. ❤️✨

The lockdown in its first phase impacted me the most. I was going through relationship stress and family conflicts on a regular basis along with health issues. Since then I've kept a close tab on myself and worked on my overall health and wellbeing. @kieran000

What lessons or personal truths have you learned while experiencing lockdown?

Wow, this has been a really tough year. I have been distant from people for a long time but I always knew they were there. When the lockdown happened, suddenly my access to those people went away. Because I am an ER RN, people were now afraid of me. I had only myself to lean on and rely on. I learned how fearful I got of people as well. Other than work, I never left my house. I didn't like that person I became. Even as things started to open up, I still would not go anywhere, even outdoor activities. I created a sense of fear to just live...and then I came here. I learned we are all just doing this life together. No matter what, we are never truly alone. I survived and am getting out, seeing people and just living life! It's amazing!
