Confinement for how long?

It's just after 4.30 pm and it's dark outside.
I'm looking into my garden and as another day closes I'm contemplating what I have done today.
Much the same as yesterday.
Days are melting into each other and the past year has gone far too quickly.
How will we feel when we can hold and hug our loved ones again?
Will we take our freedom for granted again as before?

You control how you live your life in these times. Do something for you and for your life. You can learn things. You have the internet. Read. Grow. Do a few productive things each day. Then you will accomplish something. Do pleasurable things. Things that make your heart sing. These times won't last forever. Learn to be stronger. You can do this.

@PoetryNEmotion that’s good advice but I’d like to go to some of the things that they’ve closed down now.

@cherokeepatti Thanks, but those are the rules. So we have to listen so that, in the future, we CAN go to those places again. You have plenty to keep you busy meanwhile. I am painting inside. That keeps me busy for now. Soon back to work.

@PoetryNEmotion I never said I couldn’t keep myself busy. I’d like a change of scenery.

@cherokeepatti You can go outside. You can drive around. You are not trapped indoors, CP.
