The Greatest Day
When something breaks, what happens? It’s worth noting that our world is winding down.
The body has a shelf life yet we fight to keep it going.
You say “damn it” when you cut your finger because now you have to recover. You do the steps: nurse, protect, and wait. Your finger may not be the same but you give it a chance.
We get the flu and we stay home to recover and protect others.
We tear our muscles in a workout and we take a break until the soreness subsides… or at least we should.
The universal truth is: things are breaking all around us. Bones, hearts, systems, societies. Maybe we should worry less about avoiding pain and more about recovery. Emotional recovery, physical recovery, economic recovery…
The constant “avoidance of pain” is a trap. Arguing with the pain causes more pain. Do everything in your power to make the waning world a better place and support recovery.
It’s the happiest operating system while we wait for the Greatest Day.
