Just Hang In There

The world is weary, weary of the fear but afraid for the future. Political campaigns ugly and growing uglier, airwaves choked with insults and outright lies. Hate thrives and turns friend against friend. The Covid pandemic lurks in wait outside our doorstep, invisible, threatening health and possible death. Masked people shy away from one another in stores. People isolated and lonely, visitors often limited for seniors. for many, one bleak day passes blindly into another. The only recourse from television news strangled by political infighting - The Animal Planet, The Great British Baking Show, old movies, perhaps a Zoom meeting. The world is weary, but this, too, shall pass and become part of our history, and we will survive with the hope of creating a better world. Just hang in there.
