Amen to that hope of one beat, one humanity, one soul….well done Mich 💕
You’ve captured how we feel, SweetMich!
AND you give us hope! Must hang on to the hope.
When it is all behind us, I hope humanity is better than before…that we’ve grown, have more compassion, patience, remember what the important things in life are, more appreciative of our world, the people in our world, etc.
(((HUGS))) 🙂
So hopeful….This line is a good reminder: “the world as we know it will be just right back” although I’m hoping that the world will be back but better than before considering we not only have been dealing with the pandemic but also amplification of social and racial justice. Hope you are doing well, dear friend!
I can only imagine what the encyclopedic or dictionary definitions for this year will be like…
I do wish included in that entry could be all the good stories of people helping each other during this stressful time.
Stay safe, hugs, Jules
