Not All In The Same Boat
NOT ALL IN THE SAME BOAT
Author Unknown
We are not ALL in the same boat.
We are not all in the same storm.
For some people its sprinkling. This is a break. It's a breather.
It's a rest. It's a pause. A time to reconnect with their families.
Honestly, it's kind of peaceful.
For some it's storm. It's a bit scary. It's disruptive.
It's enough to make you stay up and watch the news and worry, a bit.
For some, it's a deadly hurricane. It's tearing at boards.
It's pulling off roofs. It's washing them out to sea.
It's dark and unknown. It's life changing.
It is not WRONG to be enjoying a sprinkle or enduring a storm.
But please don't negate the difference.
Rest with your family.
But don't minimize the hurricane engulfing your neighbor.
Laugh at a meme, but get on your knees for your friends.
Get in someone else's storm.
