Adelaide I respect your response. However if you think the intention was to shame then the whole message hasn’t resonated correctly. Shame errodes the very part of us that believes we are capable of change.

The message was the pandemic should be a time to awaken you to change. Everyone is capable of being better human beings me included. An individual should see the pandemic as a reset! Humans making better choices for themselves by breeding positive thoughts not ruminating over things you have no control over anymore. To find contentment you have to practice gratitude, break bad habits (I.e. shaming yourself, ruminating over the past or past mistakes), break the negative attitude, help others. Be content with what you have. We can all work on those to be better humans. The landscape if the world is about to change drastically. Life is too short. Live it happily. That is my point.
