Playing a Poor Hand Well

From January 2020 by Ken SwaimGood Morning Folks,Thank you all for taking care of yourselves and for those who have made it to the office, nice work. This is a great time to work on building your immune system and to evaluate your health habits, body, mind, and spirit! So for today I have something for your mind and spirit which, as we discussed in our last post, affects your body too. If you missed the last post click here to catch up: READ THIS!So if you are all cooped up, or stoved up or whatever, here is a quote from Jack London, which has been an encouragement for me to continue living amidst uncertainty:"Life is not always a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes playing a poor hand well."If you are holding poor cards folks, play them well!I want to share a poem my college kid Abbey wrote the other day, which I thought captured the mood of our new reality quite well. there is still a Christmas treein the windowglowing, softlysurely a man jogs by it is march the world i know,crumbling around mecoveredfaces a child giggles outside six feet apart words muffled bymasks a dog rolls in the grass silentstreetsand empty stores and on the treeglows Health Comes From You, not to you.Cheers,ks
