The new "normal" looks quite different to all of us now huh? Some of us still heading out to work equipped with soap, hand sanitizer, maybe some with gloves, all while making sure to keep our distance as best as we can. Others working from home for the first time ever trying to set up their day in an unfamiliar spot than their normal office work space. Parents trying their best to home school their kids, while juggling working from home OR just juggling every day life. Teachers scrambling to get work on-line for their students. Some simply finding themselves on pause with their jobs, faced with financial uncertainty.
We can no longer go to restaurants or the movies, we can't see our loved ones that don't live under our roof. Face-time has become something we do more often now than ever for play dates, holidays and just to see our loved ones faces.
It's an intense time in all of our lives. The worry is heavy. The stats are high, the answers are low. We have to plug along as if things are okay. Will they be okay? How will we ever know?
It's a time in our lives that we will never forget. It's a time in our lives where we can make a difference by simply staying home.
It feels unreal and scary. But I have hope that not only will this get better but we will be better from it. I pray every night for my friends and family. I pray every night that the next sunrise brings an end to this....
Please be safe out there. Let's go down in history, doing the correct thing.
