I can't help feeling that we are all soon to find out what lies at our core as the layers around us are rapidly peeled away.
Who is ready?
Is it to be beauty, or the beast?
Another strange day - my work surrounding me with examples of the utmost in both selfishness and altruism. The altruism wins out for me - if everyone follows through on their offers of help and support in the community over the coming months, then all will be well.
Schools are to close in England, Scotland and Wales now.
Each day comes the announcement of deaths and the announcement of new measures.
I am still thankful, I am still privileged, I am still well. But I am not finding this easy. I think it is time to put away my thoughts of a quiet spell indoors catching up on all the household tasks while the world sorts it self out in my absence ready for me to return!
Glad to hear that you are well. Steve and I have got very heavy colds but fortunately not coronovirus so although we feel awful it could be a lot worse
Your wonderfully creative image depicts your words perfectly! I imagine some days will be beautiful and some days will be beastly, and the roller coaster of emotions is to be expected in challenging times like these. I'm happy to read that you are still thankful, for we all must focus on the many gifts that each day still brings. ♥
When you say 'put away my thoughts of a quiet spell' - do you mean you shan't do that? Its a situation that nobody has any experience in so we can only do our best.
@maggiemae I mean that communicating with others will be constant, and sometimes difficult, and will necessitate an acknowledgement and partaking in what is going on - in the lives of others, even if not my own. It will simply not be good enough to opt out, because 'I am alright Jack'. Atleast, that is what I think I mean! It is early days.....
Some more valued words, it is an interesting time we are witnessing, one I hope we all get through being a little more thankful. I like the edit, I think everyone is feeling a little out of sorts.
@helenhall -- I'm so sorry! I think you commented on my photo I had just posted and almost simultaneously took down and replaced but you were fast! And I lost your comment. My apologies . . . I didn't delete it, I promise!
