If you are in your head, bummed, exhausted from being exhausted from exerting and trying and showing up for your life...and you can't build a house for humanity right now, can't go to Africa right now, can't save the world...right now...get out of your house, RIGHT NOW, and go see a friend do their thing: go to their comedy show, concert, art exhibit, baseball game, piano recital. Or if those events don't happen in your town or with your friends, ask a friend if you can come over to their place and watch a movie of their choosing or listen to music they like or eat a meal they prepare.
BOTTOM LINE: GET OUT OF YOUR HEAD AND GET INTO SOMEONE'S ELSE'S.
Be a part of of another's life for a night. It will peel your eyes open and your heart...it will split your heart open. You will know that you are not the only one on THE PLANET. You can be a follower instead of a leader, a passenger instead of a driver. We need to right shotgun sometimes because steering too much can really carpal tunnel your hands.
