I’m of two minds with respect to the social distancing:
- It’s a joy to see the budding creativity in times of boredom.
- A sense of anger over the delayed and general mismanaged response to the pandemic. Perhaps the most upsetting for me is learning that because of the contagiousness of the virus people admitted to hospital with it cannot have visitors. Ultimately people are dying alone.
How is it possible to hold both 1 & 2 in my mind and heart? Maybe it’s the unfolding of tragedy and comedy? We are all feeling terribly human at the moment, aren’t we? Stay safe, wash your hands, and check in on your friends and family.
