Coronavirus

I think we can all agree on something.

This sucks.

All of it.

I've never felt grief and sadness like this before.

Every precious life gone earlier than expected.

Every moment of suffering.

Every moment of fear.

Every life event missed out on.

All the missing human contact.

This will take a lifetime to get over.

I just needed to say it somewhere to someone.

I'm holding tight to everything that makes me smile.

Every tiny joyful moment.

Every happy memory.

Hold them close to your hearts everyone.

We have a long journey together, all of us across the world.

Stay safe.

I dont know how they coped in 1918, at the end of the war without the communication we have,the extreme poverty and 50 million deaths world wide.

What we have seems unbearable at times but is nothing compared with a hundred years ago.

The global numbers seem to be slowing a little, that's made me feel hopeful

I share your pain absent my friend across the oceans .

I am distraught that I cannot see my grandchildren who used to spend so much time with me . The older ones seem to understand but my baby granddaughter (not yet 2) must think I have deserted her and her mummy . This is so sad for us all.
