Day 8 - 31 -- Transformative Thinking

It was a weird day in terms of weather. In a matter of seconds we'd go from sun to snow, from blue sky to grey sky over and over again -- meteorological happenings set on repeat today it seems. The flurries appeared to be more on shore or sea effect snow rather than system snow. Temperatures were above freezing during the day, so most of what fell melted on the roads and ground. 

I headed out the front door into bright sun and blue sky and by the time I got to the backyard, skies had changed and snow was falling. I went for a short walk and then decided to head out for groceries. The store was not as busy as I'd expected today. With a storm headed this way for Tuesday and Wednesday, I expected more folks doing the storm stock up with bread, milk, tp and the regional favourite, storm chips.  While not empty, checkout wait times were very short. This meant that I could get through the store and back home more quickly than anticipated. 

The weather today emphasized that as things change, being ready to adjust can help get through the day. Our flexibility is something within our control, whereas most changes around us are not. Transformative thinking can help us survive. A song lyric speaks to such changes in thinking. I chose a version that contains the lyrics in the feed. The singer is known for being artistic, but this selection has a tempered vocal which helped to get the message across. Stay safe. Enjoy!
