The COVID 19 Storm: What boat are you in?
We are roughly 4 months into this wild ride - emotionally drained, frazzled, shorter tempered, and less patient - all in the same storm but not necessarily on the same boat. For some who live alone they are facing endless loneliness. While others living alone are appreciating the peace and quiet.

Some welcome the reprieve from life’s whirlwind while others are in a desperate financial and family crisis.
We are in the same storm yet experiencing entirely different journeys.
