Keep the magnificence of the universe in mind!
Read more: Keep the magnificence of the universe in mind!For the first time in 800 years, my kids and I saw Jupiter in close proximity to Saturn. If you know anything about my kids, my boys in particular, you would know how deep they love the planets. In fact, on two different occasions, for Halloween, they have both dressed up as Astronauts. If you…

Keep wearing masks!
Read more: Keep wearing masks!In the process of moving things around my house, I came across some masks in my collection. It got me thinking about today’s keep. I wear masks. Maybe for self-preservation, self-protection and out of an abundance of caution. But I wear masks. My innermost thoughts, of how I feel, how I act, how I even…

Keep running your own race!
Read more: Keep running your own race!Homeschooling 2020 came to an end on Thursday/Friday. This keep is in praise of all the parents, grandparents, aunts, uncle and even friends of families that helped make it work.

Keep hope, even with the pandemic!
Read more: Keep hope, even with the pandemic!Yesterday, my husband, a frontline healthcare worker got his covid19 vaccination.

Keep together!
Read more: Keep together!My daughter’s class made mini Christmas trees for their teacher. When we got the assignment early on during the week, I must honestly say I felt that it was a waste of time.

Keep asking questions my children!
Read more: Keep asking questions my children!These days, I consider it pure joy when my children ask questions, especially questions that stump me. Like when will the pandemic end? Or why do we still have school, even homeschooling the week before Christmas. Or this one that warmed my heart, why do we give presents on Christmas Day? My daughter thinks it’s…

Keep those that correct you!
Read more: Keep those that correct you!Have you tried to put a baby to sleep at 4am?That’s my dilemma now. So I decided to mediate on the word.

Keep love!
Read more: Keep love!One of my sons rarely has time for small talks. Except if it involves planets. He also rarely gets emotional. Except when he is crying for something missing.

Keep being open-minded to new things!
Read more: Keep being open-minded to new things!I read the other day that as our knowledge grows, we become less open to new ideas, new ways of thinking, new ways of behaving, even new ways of being.
