Sometimes its good to stay home

1 Reply

Why is it good to stay home sometimes? We want to get out and about, see the goings on. Meet up with friends and family, meet new people. People watch, eat at that restaurant, enjoy the outdoors. All of that is great, makes sense. We should go because it makes sense. Go out and about and yes, we have to take care. We feel like today is a different time in the world, maybe it is. No matter what, when, we must always be aware of our surroundings. That's just the way it is, its actually always been that way. Going out, especially for our group is a very big deal. Just getting ourselves to dare to go is a struggle. Yes, it is important to go however go when it makes sense and yes, be aware. Don't be anxious, just take care of business, enjoy the fresh air. Have a good, great time and hey, sometimes its just nice to stay at home. Hang out with the family, watch tv, surf the internet. Shop online, make friends online. We live in the 21st century. Hanging out at home is pretty fun and is the new here and now, the new norm:)
