Pay Attention to the Essentials
Imagine you actually have the virus and change your behavior so that you won’t transmit it to your friends and neighbors. This means taking hand-washing, social distancing, and sanitizing surfaces, doorknobs, and taps very seriously. No more partying. Here’s how to wash your hands the way a cardiac surgeon does. Here’s another. Watch it. Learn. It feels good because it’s a hand massage. Become a Super-Preventer. Question, and learn. What does and doesn’t work? If you can sew, you make face masks. Soap is preferable to bleach. Losing your sense of smell and taste may be an early symptom. How long can the virus live on surfaces? What does two metres social distance look like? See here.

Peace
Sara Teasdale
PEACE flows into me
AS the tide to the pool by the shore;
It is mine forevermore,
It ebbs not back like the sea.
I am the pool of blue
That worships the vivid sky;
My hopes were heaven-high,
They are all fulfilled in you.
I am the pool of gold
When sunset burns and dies,—
You are my deepening skies,
Give me your stars to hold.
“There are no shortcuts in life – only those we imagine.” ~ Frank Leahy
