Lynn Toler Instagram – #Resilience. I want that. Clearly, my 64-year-old body doesn’t have the capacity to fall that far and I bounce right back. I would have been down there for a while trying to pull it together and I most certainly wouldn’t be trotting back up. But #emotionally? I think that’s something I can work towards. #Keepcoming was my mother’s favorite expression. And I intend to do just that. I want to run my emotional show. Oh , I know the world will attempt to stick its funky little fingers in my day and send me tumbling down some hole. There are some situations so overwhelming, knocked down is all you can get. But I want to make the world work for it. Bad stuff happens. But we’ve got options. We can let it level us or we can jump up and push back. We might not be able to move it but it’s like any resistance training. Builds emotional muscle. Don’t get me wrong a good cry can be a great flex, just pushing the pain all out in the air. Spent a lot of time of late doing that very thing. All I’m saying is don’t get TikTok Teary over some nonsense. Don’t get McMad at McDonald’s because your order was wrong. That’s selling your peace for cheap. Exchanging your #chill for chump change. Stay cool. Keep your peace and your pennies. #emotional #emotionalintelligence I wish you well this Sunday. My day will be filled with, #hair treatments, a new recipe, yarn and acrylic paint. #joytrolling
