CRISIS PLACES ACTIONIn times of crisis we ALL have a part to play!Have you recognized your role?Are you the quiet introvert who in times of public flamboyance stays aloneAlong the side lines happily hidden amidst the crowdAre you now having a problem as part of the incarceration?Are you the outgoing party queen who is happier in the middle of a group with chattering friendsAre you now, not quietly, climbing the wall?Are you neither of the above but one of the masses who in previously normal times lived a life of sameness?Working each day at the same job!Eating lunch and dinner at the same time with family and friends or coworkersThe normal of today is very differentToday you awaken at the same timeBut you have to remind yourself you are not going to workOutside your home that is!Your breakfast is a reminder of the new normalNo fresh fruit and your milk is made from a dried mixCoffee is so far the only normal cupbut you’re careful not to waste a drop or over indulgeAnd the day moves on with you the introvert, extrovert or a mix of bothEither way you are here – inside- away from family, friends, coworkersYou are alone!On the positive sideThe internet provides you with connectivityTo family, friends, coworkersIt’s almost realIt’s better each dayAs you become accustomed to the new normal of enforced solitudeYou recognize the values of connectionThe loss of the normal shopping, dining out, theatre, concerts, sports, churchThe losses are manyThe loneliness is vividThe gains are all importantFamily, friends, kindness, love, connectionAppreciation for things and people taken for granted!Yes, you are a part of All that is importantThis is your role!!!Be present ALL!!!

Inspiration and grief travel On different wave links Both flourish in my human shell Would that one could replace the other completely And yet I am grateful for the uneven flow of inspired words as slowly as they come
If I survive
I’m going to find a pet I think it will be a Ricky But it may be a Strenna. I’m moving to the beach So if I’m incarcerated I can see the ocean Feel the Spume Walk in the sand And never be alone!
Thanks for the memories!
