There is a temptation to stay safe and set ourself up with friends and family and leave the rest of the world alone. But there are benefits to getting out of our lives. There are benefits to seeing destitute people and hearing people's difficulties. There are benefits to being in the midst of laughter and smiling as well. Heidi shares experiences that have led to these beliefs in today's podcast. You'll like this one. There are lots of stories.
Take Aways
- There is a temptation to get ourselves set up in a good place and then seclude ourselves from the world physically or socially or both.
- Hearing sad and seemingly hopeless stories of others leads to feelings of compassion for them and appreciation for some of the things you have that you take for granted.
- We also need to hear laughing and happy people.
- Witnessing other people go through a "normal day" and regular life things can help someone who is having a difficult time be able to cope better.
- "Witnessing these and other normal life patterns brought a peace to my heart. It was as if my heart was saying, 'See! Normal life still exists. People are still buying groceries, they're still making dinner, they're still going to sporting events. It's going to be okay.'"
- Sometimes we need to schedule a day and time for a certain thing. Sometimes that's what our life needs.
