Do you physically know anyone that hasn’t being wondering, “What
if and when if?” How much will we change
when it does? I can stop asking. A Covid-19 case has made an appearance in
places we had hoped it wouldn’t. Hearing
the news about someone we love brought on the natural reactions. Not shock!
But personal worry and a heaping heart full of compassion. You play games in your head based on where
was I? Did I get too close? Was I anywhere near? Which is kind of funny because this past Friday
I posted about how proud I was of how our community is truly sticking to the
rules of social distancing. There’s
absolutely no reason for rage. Only love
and support. Love thy neighbor as they self. We aren’t newcomers to this. We know the signs. Now we must be even more aware. What else can a Daily Writer put on paper
except that it’s here so let there be more affirmations of inspiration and motivation? To be present with the mind body and
soul. I’m no professional with any of
this. The only experience most of us
have is through the way we share. We can’t
turn this into a moment of guilt tripping people to wear their mask or to stay
away from large groups of people. We
know the rules. Being held accountable
for not agreeing with what’s been everything but a mandate. Their issues and not mine. Yet that could all
change in North Carolina in the next couple of days. Will it really matter? Who gets the job of telling people they can’t
come in? So much productive time being
something you’re not. Such as the lone
person at grocery stores spending an entire shift spraying down the carts. It reminds me of the people that hold the
stop and slow signs at a road construction site. That’s the only thing you have to do
today? It killed me to play 16 to 20
songs an hour on the radio but I could only talk over three song intros. The rest of the time was spent watching the
computer mix the music. While preparing
this morning story today I stopped for a moment to take a sneak peek at
Facebook. I need to change the opening
sentence. Do you physically know anyone
that hasn’t been wondering? Yeah that
one. The news just picked up has to ask
an even tougher question. How many of us
can count on two hands the number of people we know who has had someone close
to them taken away because of Covid-19? I can stop asking…
