Since the middle of March 2020, our lives have changed dramatically because of a pandemic. We’ve had to stay at home, and if we go out we need to practice social distancing and wear masks.
In my town, the mayor and council put together a little video about what we are going through. A few things really stuck out to me. They decided to say ‘Physical Distancing – Social Togetherness’. This really hit home to me, because we are a social people. We can’t practice social distancing. Now more than ever, we need to join together. You can reach out to others through phone, text, zoom, etc. How blessed are we that we have so many social media outlets and this time. They also titled this year as, ‘2020 A Year of Hope and Coming Together’.
Each day I try to keep a positive attitude about what is happening around me. I reflect on the things I’m grateful for. I spend time outside enjoying nature, mostly in my backyard. I exercise each morning and eat healthy foods. I get dressed and do my hair and makeup. Doing that always helps me feel better about myself, and I can accomplish more when I get ready for the day.
Here’s hoping to get past this unprecidented time quickly!
