I love the comments here. Yes, we often forget the joyous things- the beautiful weather, the wonderful innocence of animals and children, people who have not lost their kindness and sense of humor in these very strange times.
But here's another side of it. We're all stuck at home because a lot of people messed up. Some of us have more time for a new project until things normalize. This would be a great time for us as Americans to rise up and HELP MAKE THINGS BETTER. Im angry too. This would be a time for a grassroots movement to take hold. I voted for Trump and he is good at some things, However, watching his ludicrous behavior on the press briefings has made me loathe him. Watching a few of those doesnt really tell the tale completely. I was watching every day for awhile and he just doesnt have what it takes. This is a world crisis. The last time we had a challenge this big, I believe was WWII. Does Trump measure up to giants like Winston Churchill and Franklin Delano Roosevelt? Do you you young ones even know the magnitude of what those two leaders did to save the free world? It's ok to be angry and we can use it as the impetus to ALWAYS VOTE. Some of us have time to volunteer to help in political campaigns, help run neighborhood organizations, charitable groups.
Reading Bill Gates blog gives a balanced science based view and using him as a role model can lift the rest of us up. MANY OF US CAN HAVE A ROLE IN SAVING PEOPLE, SAVING OUR GOVERNMENTS, AND SAVING THE WORLD.
Do something small, do something ambitious. Projects help fight depression for sure. Hugs to everyone!
