How is everyone doing? I tell you my confidence is shaken, my mental health wavers. Somedays I feel like we can beat this soon. Other days like today, we have another 25 confirmed COVID 19 cases. A sobering reality, that it may get worse before it gets better.
The real heroes are the front line staff, health care workers, truck drivers, grocery store cashiers, maintenance and custodians. This virus is non discriminatory and affects everyone. The so called important people are learning that they are not as important now as they thought they were. The people with money and power are finding out that they are not that powerful or valuable as they thought.
We will get through this and than life will return to normal or some variation of normal. We all have a role to play. That role is to stay at home, no unnecessary trips or errands to run. This one is hard for me, my wife says I love running errands. This is true.
It has always been said that when times get tough, true leaders and friends emerge. We are seeing evidence of this on all levels. Many people are stepping up and helping out. Businesses are repurposing to meet the demand.
Even if we can’t physically see people and socialize, social media is a great way to stay connected. Reach out to at least 3 people in your network each day. It is great for our mental health. If you have a balcony, backyard go outside for a few minutes.
We overlook a creek and the geese have come back. It is great to hear them and see them interact. It’s the little things that matter and make a difference. We can and will get through this. Hopefully by September. Cheers everyone and STAY Safe and POSITIVE.
