From your friends in the Reflections Group:How are you feeling these days? A little like you are just going through the motions? Us, too. We’re all feeling a bit shell shocked lately, living within a pandemic which has gone on for so long, as well as recognizing that the past few years have been filled with crises on numerous fronts. With so much uncertainty, it can feel like we’re trying to make our way through a fog.

In our writing and art over the next few weeks, we hope to express how we’ve been affected by these extraordinary times. Many of us are feeling the inertia. We may find ourselves unmotivated or frustrated. Perhaps we feel sadness more often, or even anger.

When we recognize how we are feeling, it is validating. It helps to ground us.  And from that grounding, we can make decisions on how to best move forward. 

We invite you to share your thoughts and emotions through the Reflections offerings. Perhaps you might even have some strategies that have helped you navigate through these challenging times which might benefit others, too. 

We will be sharing meditations on this topic over the next few weeks. Writing, photography, and/or visual art may be emailed to any member of our group for inclusion in St. George’s Reflections.

With you on the journey,
