Ep. 22 - Easy Like Sunday Morning

For everyone, especially artists, here is your weekly, witty inspiration to stay sane in a crazy world. Tranquilo. Tranquilo in Spanish means be easy, relax, calm down or don't worry. Truthfully, it's one of my favorite Spanish words! 

I woke up joyful and energetic today. I was ready to both tackle the day and my to-do list and then I suddenly realized it was later then I thought. Initially, I felt like worrying and hurrying but my spirit whispered "tranquilo". Tranquilo has been the theme for the day ever since. It's a soothing, simple word that reminds us that "despite they way things look, everything is okay, everything happens for a reason and within divine timing" so relax. 

The news cycle this week WAS WILD! There were lots of comical and crazy things that occured. I will include a few of them in my podcast "Coolin With AaronaTheVirgo" but moving forward with this blog, I want to try and teach something weekly.
In addition to reminding you that God loves you and is with you EVERY WEEK (really everyday) despite how crazy the world gets, I want impart useful knowledge you may not know OR need a reminder about. 

LOL, so if you didn't know the Spanish word "tranquilo" NOW you know it! It means "relax, calm down, be easy and don't worry". Hopefully, last week you learned the ins and outs of Roe V. Wade and the evolution of it. Here is something else you may or may not know... On today's date, October 27th the New York City Subway System opened for the first time in 1904!
I really love history and so moving forward, I'll include more "On Today's Date" type of information. Can you guess what else happened on October 27th?  Well, October 27th is also an important date in history because in 1962 The United States and Soviet Union took a step back from the brink of Nuclear War. In 1659, on October 27th Quakers were executed for their religious beliefs... aren't you GLAD you live in 2024? In 2004, The Boston Red Sox won their 1st championship since 1918. October 27th is also famous for being former President Theodore Roosevelt's (1858) and Mafia boss John Gotti's (1940) birthdays. 

So there you have it, even history teaches us about the ebb and flow of societies and culture. I point this out to say, whatever it is you are witnessing and experiencing always remember "tranquilo". All we can control is ourselves and moving through our days, weeks, months KNOWING that God loves us, we are here on purpose because we are not dead and there is something rich and enjoyable about everyday we are alive despite the weirdos, the mean people and the evil people (smile). 
That's your takeaway for this week to stay sane in this crazy world, "tranquilo". Cause no matter how old the Earth is and how far back history stretches, there has always been obstacles to happiness, people fighting over SOMETHING, new babies being born and new innovations being made in spite of it all. If today is one of those days where the worst is happening, just know that there is STILL TIME and it is quite possible to achieve/accomplish something great. 

You GOT THIS BOO!
