Each day I wake up
Knowing that the world is not the same
I look outside
Empty streets
More bees than usual
Deer walking around peacefully
Finally free to exist
Without human intervention
Each day seems the same
They blur together
One indistinguishable from the last
This is the new norm
Time becomes irrelevant
When there’s nothing to do
Weekends become meaningless
When they’re more of the same
Each day I ask myself
How am I supposed to pass the time?
One activity to the next
I attempt to distract myself
The future is uncertain
And the present is more of the same
Jumping back and forth between two realities in my mind
I wonder if the certainty of the present moment is better than the uncertainty of the future
Each day I wonder
How will we move forward from this?
What will become the new norm?
Maybe it’s a blessing in disguise
An opportunity to be better
To build better systems
To prevent future catastrophes
An optimistic outlook overshadowed by the pessimistic reality
Each day I wake up happy to be alive.I am thankful that I am healthy.I am thankful for my family and friends.God was good to me. she gave me two wonderful children and four outstanding grandchildren.You have a wonderful life ahead of you.Every day is not the same .Each day is an opportunity to do something special.Today two friends visited me and we played a game.Then I received beautiful flowers.What a wonderful day. Love,Gram
