Good morning everyone,
Both within the community, and outside of it, we all wonder from time to time what life post-COVID19 will look like. What will change? Can we even sustain long term change? I'm not talking about the necessary safety changes as we emerge from lockdown, but in the things we have learned which we may not have known or accepted before.
Here's a quotation from John Mark Green who is described at Goodreads as an 'IT geek by profession and a writer by passion'.
"We can't go back to who we were before, or unlearn the truths our hearts now know".
Quite clearly he said that before we knew about COVID19. But in it lies a real truth. That we are no longer as naive as we were before its occurrence. We will never again feel complacent or take for granted our ability to move around and be close to our loved ones. We know fear and vulnerability and that our loved ones can be cruelly taken from us. We know that what we have can be removed from us in the blink of an eye. And that's the real change which is in us already I think. We know now how easily this can happen.
Stay safe everyone, and have a good day. 🙏
