Plot twist, not a setback.

This year has likely changed so much for so many — with sickness, loss, disruption, fatigue, confusion. More nouns than we’d like to bear.

Something I read this week was helpful: “It’s a plot twist, not a setback.

Any good story we read is winding - and no character is without challenge. Could this just an ‘interesting turn of events’ versus a ‘trough’?

My goodness: it can be difficult to reframe things in this way. But reminding myself there are many chapters left to go.
