As our communities are opening up more, we may be asking ourselves what we have learned if anything. What have we learned about our kids? Did we gain knowledge about us? How many lessons did we learn from this past year?

What were the Lessons

If we look at the positive, maybe we learned how to live within our means. Perhaps we learned how to help others more? Possibly we understand what other people are going through. It is clear we learned not to be so judgmental of others. In the same crazy space, we now understand that somebody is going through something every day.

During this crazy time, there were some big things that some people had to go through. There was loss of family member or friend, loss of job, loss of home. Some of us were faced with no money, no food and no school. Mothers were left with no babysitter or understanding of school work. Not being able to have a break was the problem of countless.

An Abundance of Understanding

When we see each other in stores, we can appreciate and understand somebody’s brash or rude comment because it could be they are trying to go through something. In all probability we should just practice sending each other love as we try to maneuver out of this past year.

Maybe the universe wanted us to stop working the jobs that had no meaning? It could be that this was the time to become and do the things we were put on earth to do. No doubt it pointed us in the right direction of our purpose while we found other jobs. Most likely the universe was behind this by making us think outside the box. This time taught us things that were going to help us become the best part of our selves.

Openness Taught Us

While we found so much time in our homes, countless worldwide digested how to bake bread and nourish our bodies. We experienced how to eat things more natural. Many knew and detected the reward of going out in nature. Numerous looked at how nature responded to less pollution. Multitudes examined how our hearts responded to the beautiful singing that was happening in Italy and worldwide. The collective also felt their soul when people were doing their cultural dances.

Many souls experienced how life went on as people were dying. Plenty grasped the knowledge that we only have so much time here. Gobs learned that meditation works. Tons gained the effects that a smile helps everyone. Humans mastered how kindness is everything. More importantly, we absorbed that there’s nothing better than love. Love cures all.
