While on lock down...

I don’t need to feel any shame for what I am NOT doing and stop talking about the new normal. Everything has changed and some of us like the changes more than others... We are all led to believe that the situation is temporary and that on the other side of the time with Coronavirus lock downs Things Will Be different and somehow better. I sure hope so because the current reality is not that much fun at work or home... Hope might be the one skill we should develop during this time. Let’s not miss our chance to make things better, even if the changes are small. In the meantime, don’t make me feel guilty for the new language I didn’t learn or the forty pounds I didn’t lose or the new skill I didn’t develop while locked down. I know Shakespeare wrote all of his plays and Newton invented gravity while in lock down during the plague. That information doesn’t help me because I am not like those guys. In fact, lots of people I talk to have downsized their goals to include nice dinners with family and connecting with old friends so stop with guilt arrows. The new goal is: Let’s get through this because I need to get mentally prepared for all the things that will be different.

I love the honesty. In the end, we’re all unique and we will cope with Coronavirus in our own way, and in the best way we can. Just sayin’ :) Hugs, XO
