I saw a post on Facebook this morning that said “He that
displays food on social media and says “come and eat” is worse than evil spirits”
It is funny but we are in a season of great economic distress worldwide, especially those of for us in these
parts. People who are going from paycheck to
paycheck are even considered fortunate because many do not even have a paycheck
or any means of livelihood for that matter. It is however interesting to note
that in these difficult, trying times, many are looking for alternate means of
making money that they would never have considered. There is beauty in every
season, the beauty of the dry season for those of us that live in tropical
regions is that the weather is very clear and we can see further than in other
season. I saw a certain plant in full bloom in this very dry season when
vegetation is dying due to the lack of rain. I have no scientific explanation
because I have not done any research in that area but I believe that no matter how dry it
is, few of us can still bloom if we choose to. We cannot change the weather but
we can choose to do something about how we see the season and what we can do to
benefit from it. While some choose to see only the dryness, others choose to
see what they can do to make the weather profitable for them and others. Ideas only
come to those who look at a difficult situation, see past its limitations
and imagine what they can do to bloom in spite of the inconveniences. Until you
start seeing difficulties from the point of view of gain, life will try to suffocate
you. We have more people who are studying what is around them rather than studying what is in them. Step back and think, then come forth and act. Enjoy your day!
