Hi everyone,
Welcome to anyone who is new to the group! This week’s theme is “see the bigger picture”.
When you’re stuck in a difficult situation, it’s hard to notice the bigger picture and what’s going on around you.
In his book, Zen Ties, Jon. J Muth writes,
“It is easy to believe we are each waves and forget we are also the ocean”
When you’re struggling, it’s easy to get stuck in your own head. It’s hard to see past your own thoughts. You may think you are all alone.
This is the most important time to seek out help and talk to others who have ridden the same waves.
You may be stranded because it’s a new experience.
You may be stranded because you don’t know anything different.
You may be stranded because you choose to be.
Make the choice to ride the wave with others and not by yourself.
