Huge limb. Big storm. It landed in the one strip of ground between our garage and our house. Zero damage.
My husband walked out and spiraled. The tree fell. What if it had hit the house. What else is about to come down.
I walked out and laughed. It missed. A limb that size threaded a needle between the two most expensive things we own.
Same event. Same driveway. Two realities. And I watch what his lens costs him, because believing everything happens TO you is a toll. It keeps you braced, exhausted, and blind to the blessings standing right in front of you.
Today’s episode is the brain science of why. Your reticular activating system only shows you what you have trained it to find. Threat filter, you find threats. Blessing filter, you find doors. I interview twenty new people a week and the only reason it feels like a gift instead of a grind is one word. Not who do I have to talk to. Who do I GET to meet.
Plus the woman whose layoff became the business she had dreamed about for a decade, and Paul and Silas singing at midnight in the stocks while the other prisoners listened.
Perspective is the only thing nobody can take from you. Stop giving it away.
Go listen.
