When facing new and uncertain experiences, our coping mechanisms can use a little fine tuning. Some of the most valuable tools we can have is accepting the element of surprise. It can be beneficial to have the ability to explore the methods created for safety, why they are important. How adept we are at keeping our responses fluid can directly equate to how we cope. In addition, our most vulnerable populations next to the medically fragile, seniors and kids; demand our full attention and more resources.
The bottom line is that however we can help ourselves face these changing issues in society, will allow us to better manage our responsibilities to ourwork, family, and community. Our personal well-being and health is imperative to supporting others.
United By Distance 😷
When we can open our minds to different perspectives, we can share and understand the community goals. This will allow distance to unite us!
Flexible Responses ⛑
When we can accept the unforeseeable and roll with the unexpected we can be more FLEXIBLE with our responses.

The Elephant at Dinner🐘
Current situations (Covid, Vaccines, US government, injustice and racial inequality, sexual harassment, the situation in Afghanistan, Terrorism, School and society gun violence) , and all current events need to be explained to children. Family debates and discussions can be healthy. . This is a time to remember. These are issues that can shape young minds and change the world. Try not to ignore these at home. These are not topics we want them to learn anywhere else. Please don’t let them remain the “elephant at dinner” 🐘
Motivate, Collaborate & Create👏
Motivate yourself, your community, and our government to be aware of people that need advocacy. Collaborate with your community to stay vigilant about health and safety, and help educate on various topics that you believe in. Create an atmosphere at home, in yourcommunity or within organizations where you can be supportive to others, and know who to go to for yourself!

Flash forward to somewhere in the early 2000’s when the online social media wars began! Cell phones made it possible to snap more pictures of anyone, anywhere, at anytime and without their consent! Apps like Facebook, offered easy uploading, tagging and commenting, internationally. It was no longer impossible for everyday people to become the talk of the town. Anyone could become as infamous as a celebrity ( even internationally) for positive, embarrassing or criminal behavior that was posted about them. Further into this new era of social exploration through media it was evident that pictures, and stories could be edited, cropped and altered to fit whatever the goal of the publisher.
Places online like MySpace, ASKfm were born.. areas in light of the internet that became dark. Notepads for anyone to write about people (usually terribly negative things) and even remain anonymous ! The worst thing you can ever do is read the garbage written about you or anyone you care about. The internet when used in THAT way IS the world of the SCARED, the ABUSED, and the ABUSERS. It is for the people that are afraid to deal with things in their life so they take out their frustrations on others and hide behind the “shield” of today’s fiber optic cable, and spoofing. If there is something that you came across that is a threat or repeated harassment in multiple places, report it to the police or your school immediately.
As a parent, pre-teen, teen or young adult….. it is important to know that their are places that are more dangerous than others to be scammed.
