As we continue staying home and staying healthy, some begin to reopen and venture out. Masked, social distancing, and sometimes afraid of other people’s judgments, some businesses are opening in my area. The nearby copy shop attempted to remain open, was forced to close and found it was robbed when returning. I gave him some business and lots of compassion.
In our otherwise empty large commercial building, one bold tenant returned yesterday. Resuming what her clients experience as essential service, while masked, and practicing social distance, she was afraid when I came to congratulate her. When she saw the dozen red roses I offered as a gift, she came out to receive, letting go of her avoidance strategy.
What are you afraid of as we transition towards reopening? What gift might you give, and in doing so, energetically receive?Ki to Happiness recognizes that what I give, I receive.
