My daughter tested positive for Covid on Saturday. Sadly it means she will miss her gymnastics competition on Monday. She is so disappointed. She asked if we could test again, and then again just to check. And maybe again.
It’s funny how we know deep down inside what the reality is, but we still want to give things a chance to be different, to match what we really want.
I think that’s a good thing.
To not just accept the first answer, the first response, the first result. If you really want something it’s good to have the energy to not give up straight away. You never know!
But it’s also good to know when you have tried, and it’s time to draw a line, to not give up but know that this time it just didn’t work out. There will be another time, another opportunity, maybe bigger and better, or maybe just different.
We have Fear Of Missing Out. So we keep going, well beyond what we should.
But what if we also could be ok with it.
If it is in fact Feel Ok Missing Out.
And that helps us to move on quicker to the next better thing.
Hope you had a great day - and didn’t miss out on it!
