Still connected

I saw this on a recent walk in my neighborhood. It hit me as poignant. The unprecedented and exceptionally tense emotional paths we walk currently are taking a toll on all. There is an important point that should be stressed, we are still connected. We may feel frayed and tattered but we are still part of the whole. My deepest hope is that we can re-weave ourselves stronger and wiser, world wide.

Stay safe, and sane!

A fav for the sentiment and good thoughts. I think your flag is a good depiction of that and I think many would agree with you.

@olivetreeann Thank you so kindly for the fav. With all the upsetting news one hears, it seemed necessary to remind myself that we are all in this together.

@samae Most grateful, thank you.

@domenicododaro Thank you so very much, truly appreciate the fav. The common thread of society is shared by all, under all flags and in all corners of this world.

.@s4sayer Thank you so very much. We all are experiencing varying degrees of trauma and reminding ourselves that we aren't alone, helps me.

@redy4et Thank you a great deal.

@jgpittenger I am convinced that we will be okay but finding how to get there requires compassion.

@bubblequeen Thank you a great deal.

Love your sentiment. 2020 has been and continues to be difficult. Sometimes to cheer myself up I think of the both big and small blessings we’ve had this year some of which would not have happened if we weren’t going through these trying times.

@jernst1779 I truly believe we will make it but some days it is tough. I am trying to have newsless days more often. The constant negativity that is part of staying connected and aware is something that I need to temper. I know that being involved with 365 helps a great deal but it also has suffered from news burnout.
