Silver Lining

How do you feel when the situation you are in seems overwhelming? It’s easy to be overwhelmed – that makes sense… but… that can be overwhelming too…

When life overwhelms me, I apply the silver lining technique – of finding something good that comes from the situation that otherwise seems awful.

Today is the start of our 2nd weekend of Covid-19 Lockdown Level 4 Part II.

Tonight’s silver lining is: I did not have to drive home from work in peak hour traffic in the rain. Yay! Instead, I was already home wearing pajama pants.

Now, I have an extra silver lining: Check the word “PAJAMA.” It is underlined in red, indicating I have spelled it incorrectly… I was surprised and googled it to find that it is pyjama in most areas of the world! Well, whoops… It’s fun realising that there are more than one way of looking at things, or spelling some things… and there’s another! Realize!!

I spell some words some ways and some another – having lived in a number of places over my time on this planet… Do you mix and match your languages??
