(21,756 posts)I want to be able to do something. But I am a senior with health concerns. The best I can do is to avoid getting sick, not just for myself, but to avoid further burdening the system.
But I'm thinking that another way we can help ourselves and each other, within our limits, is to create some balance in our lives by sharing positive news, anecdotes, and humor. Take more breaks from it all at the DU Lounge on threads totally unrelated to the pandemic, economy, and politics.
That is not a refusal to face reality. It is a recognition that mental AND physical health require a balance through R & R. I have a wooden plaque that I could not resist buying when I saw it. It says, "Life is not about waiting for the storn to pass. It is about learning to dance in the rain."
