The world is Social Distancing themselves and we are finding ways to cope by keeping ourselves busy by finding projects, finishing projects, spring cleaning, sending out text messages and emails to family members near and far.
Today the temperature is -1c and I decided to go outside to enjoy the sunshine on our deck!
Coffee in hand plus a book, my journal I am all set to relax outside in the spring sunshine. On a day like today, soaking up a few rays of sun can heal.
The birds are out singing, wood pecker banging on something metal, the local squirrel being cheeky. As I am writing in my journal, I am thinking about the people in my life, my children, grand children, other family members and of course my friends. I wonder what life will be like in their future. When things are said and done, will life resume as it was or will we be changed for the better?
I know life is changing for some...and I worry about what the future.

As we are Social Distancing or going into self isolation... I will try photograph and blog about this experience and add that to my challenge. So bear with me.
I hope you are staying happy and healthy!
hugs
I will see you tomorrow!

When you love what you have,
you have everything you need.
Change implies making an essential difference to a situation. What might have been seen as unfathomable a couple of weeks ago, the world has changed and unfortunately not for the betterment of humankind. Cities throughout the globe are making decisions to stem the spread of this terrible virus. Although it may not be politically correct, “self-isolation” is one those small changes that could have a dramatic impact in preventing its spread. Humans have a fundamental need for social interaction so when it is removed it has an impact on one’s mental health. A particular symptom is to get lost in negative thinking. Remember to do meaningful things with a sense of purpose, stay positive and committed to the changes, keep a sense of humour and reach out to those you care about, write a note, send an email or text or even use the phone. You are not alone.
