Let’s face it we’re in deep. V deep! Like no turning back. So, let’s just compose ourselves and figure this whole thing out. Apparently we need to keep up Social Distancing but we still need Social Contact. Whether you ascribe to the the theory that we crawled out of a molecular stew or we set out from the Garden of Eden, somehow we organized ourselves as social beings. We have come to a crossroads of sorts, do we continue to interact on a mano e mano level or do we retreat to the security of our virtual personifications. Our FaceBook pages or Instagram posts, searching out the latest manifestation of our personas via TikTok . A virtual relationship gives the security of anonymity, but does’nt compensate for the need to be a part of something real. Like walking in a field of daisies. You can’t replicate the smells, the sounds, the touch…….virtually . But……circumstances dictate caution. Things being as they are, we need to find a happy medium, between the virtual and the commonplace. We are coming out of hibernation, as the dreary days of March gives way to the awakening of April, and now May, and we’re out and about (nose and mouth coverings or not), this is the new reality. We all want to stand on a sidewalk in the summer’s heat squeezing a paper cup containing Italian Ice. But can we ? These are the questions and the decisions we will make, as we move into the Summer of Covid 19. I’m convinced that we will figure this out. It may never be the same, but it could be even better.
Why Don’t we Reinvent the whole world!
