  • We are religious about #selfcaresunday these days. I was working 24/7 to deal with my Rona/State of the world depression. Then, I realized something... I do not have to earn rest. I just started taking it. We are a military family so we become “in to” whatever our current location has to offer. 🏛In DC, we attended political lectures + toured museums e-v-e-r-y week {+ I loved it}. #citygirl 🔰In Japan, we hiked, we visited temples, shrines, + spent all of our time outdoors. 🏃🏽‍♀️🏃🏽‍♂️In Monterey, we lived + ran by the beach. 🥾In SoCal we hike. How are you making the best of your current situation? P.S. This empath is a bit overwhelmed by what’s going on in Texas {stationed there twice for a total of five years}. I’m praying for you, friends + vetting the best options for sending resources.
