"One day I woke up to a world of topsy-turvy one minute sharing a meal and hugging my kids and the next, keeping my distance with a masked smile" I believe that tomorrow was never ours and that hope is the rafter that keeps us afloat I believe that this pandemic has changed our attitude and given us a chance to realize how precious life is I believe that if we persevere and work together we can find a solution to this dilemma I believe government is doing the best it can we can't slap our leaders, if we need their hand I believe in miracles, especially in these difficult times one day can make a difference I believe that mountains can crumble and so can people but if we fight the good fight, we can win I believe in good old fashioned courage putting a little water in our wineglass I believe we owe it to ourselves and to our loved ones to continue to do all that we can, to stay healthy and alive.

Keep it real--with the sound of loving heartbeats--just as your poem does my friend. Much inspiration in your words, Vienna.

Everyday I find it impossible to stay healthy. Age will be the end of me. But we fight till the end.
