Nice people surround us. When we get fed up with the daily news and begin to think that everyone is an idiot, remember that good people exist.
Yesterday morning, I caught my toe on the bottom corner of a door. You know how you bump into something and it hurts? Then you look at your toe and see that it is fine, or that you tore a nail? Well, I looked down to see one of my toes shooting out at a 90 degree angle from normal.
My husband took me to the ER and you know what? The staff was pleasant, competent, and nice. My toe looked terrible. It actually looked laughably ridiculous. I wasn’t in too much pain. An ER visit was necessary, but this wasn’t a life-threatening emergency. No rushing into surgery or anything like that. Everyone took the time to be nice. It restored my faith in humanity. A lovely reminder that good people exist.
Last week, Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed into spirit. She was a person of integrity who worked for justice and equality in America. She was a good person, a leader. It is wonderful to see that kind of representation in public life.
Right now, most of us attend fewer activities and have fewer people in our social circles. We spend more time in our homes, or in small groups. We use our computers for social interaction. Let’s not focus only on our limitations; let’s also focus on our joys. Our neighbors are still reliable. We can talk to them from a few feet away. Our Peanut M&Ms are still delicious. The sun still shines. My toe has been set and points in the correct direction. :)
What we focus on, expands.
If you are having trouble finding good people in your life, be that good person. Be the person you would like to admire. Send a bouquet of flowers for no reason. Tell someone how much you appreciate them. Write a letter. Send a card. Remember when spirit said that when we uplift one, we uplift all? We can do this.
Life is a joy. Life is a banquet. Great adventures await us. Each of us is an anchor of light. Even though our social circles are smaller, we have much to celebrate.

P.S. My toe was not broken, only dislocated. Good news.
