How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.
I find myself drifting aimlessly day to day. I’m so aware of how fragile life is. How so many people are being taken from us too soon. How it seems especially cruel we are experiencing a surge during what has traditionally been the “the season of joy”. So since I can’t do any thing about so many of the “big” issues in life I find my self looking at little details of things I would have overlooked before. I must admit I’ve never sat and watched rain drops drip, counting seconds for them to collect and then drip, and then try and match that with the click to catch a picture. Regardless of how steady the drip is, “catching the moment “ seems a fitting metaphor for these times.

Many of us have experienced restrictions on movement and social contact during the pandemic. Talk about any restrictions that have especially affected you.
I had one friend who had to actually quarantine himself because he had caught the virus and honestly I was frightened for him. When you hear that someone close to you has the virus the only thing to think is that "Oh will he/she make it" so I asked my friend immediately what I could do to be of help while he was healing. However, he was calm and took the process of healing slowly and so I did the same but the only restriction that really caused any frustration was the fact that we weren't allowed to go to many places although it was completely understandable why the government issued a lock down.
