What Next

“Keep going. No matter what you do, no matter how many times you screw up and think to yourself "there's no point to carry on", no matter how many people tell you that you can't do it - keep going. Don't quit. Don't quit because a month from now you will be that much closer to your goal than you are now. Yesterday you said tomorrow. Make today count.”

It has been a long time since the world has seemed sane. Worldwide isolation has changed the very fabric of our life. I don't think any of us understand the impact the Corona Virus has had or how the future will be impacted by our lost year.

We are no more or less than rats in a weird experience. We have no Pavlov to ring a bell. We tip toe into and out of social engagement. We do our best to accept today. Yet, we struggle. The future is totally unknown. Relationships that fail, will not recover. An economy battered will never be as it was.

None of this indicates misery and sorrow are all the future holds. We are resilient. We shall forge new relationships with the world. We shall find new people, places and things. Tomorrow is not to be feared. Yesterday is gone. Today is the day to get through.

Maybe there will be a county fair, maybe not.
