If someone had told you 12 weeks ago that most businesses would be closed, all public events would be cancelled, the kids wouldn’t be in school, and the chief medical officer would be calling all of the shots in our country, what would you have thought?
And yet when they cancelled the Calgary Stampede and high school graduation this week, we didn’t even bat an eye.
And that is how quickly we adapt. In 6 weeks our whole world has changed, and even if we don’t fully accept it, we expect it.
This is fascinating to me, and I love our ability to adapt.
I’m looking forward to the next part, which I am starting to see emerging now.
This is the part where our strong will to survive kicks in.
This is the part where we as humanity, take the cards we have been dealt and we play to win. We look for opportunities, ways to thrive against the odds, and we continue to grow no matter what.
I am looking forward to seeing how this part plays out.
