~:[CH9 - Day 348]:~ Build

I was intrigued by today's message. At first, the message may have struck me the wrong way and people may have though, where is this headed, but by the end, I think the message struck a cord in many of us. If you look at how society is and within our own lives, we constantly look for a place where we fit in, where we feel comfortable, and find a community of like-minded individuals. As while it may bring comfort, does it truly become the place where we should be. Must we continuously hear the voices that are similar to ours of find only people who like what is similar to what we like or should we not run away from or block those voices, but rather, work with them to build. We've become such a divisive society that we have been led to destroy each others rather than work at building. It's easy to cancel someone or to seek instant comfort, but in life, should be learn to open our minds and work towards finding common ground or work towards making our current situations more comfortable? Instead of running away from problems that seem too difficult to solve, can't we seek out the resources over time to help figure out how to solve the problems that we face? These months have made me better at figuring things out, at learning and at how to create something with what is available. I think cooking is a great metaphor for life. You look at what you have and you do your best to make something that fulfills what  you're looking for including the need to satisfy that hunger. Regardless, as we have time to ourselves during these times at home, let's analyze how we've face this world. Did we hid and run away or did we face challenges face on? Did we have enough confidence and courage in ourselves and enough faith to believe that we could solve this problem and that we could build instead of seeing out a place more comfortable. Instead of seeking a place where you belong, why don't you look to build a place where you can belong by using what is available to you and creating something you never thought possible. It's a tall order, but I have faith that we can all do it and truly learn and grow by facing up to what we once ran away from and finding comfort in a place we though we never could.
