April 1, 2020...stuck inside....|Covid-19.......I accepted an invite to an online writing session with Toronto Writers Collective
An ordinary moment
An ordinary time. An ordinary moment.Today is April 1.
Today is all fools day.
This is a very ordinary day.
A day to fool around, a day to prank who you can, without taking it too far.
I say to you that today April 1, 2020 is my new ordinary.
It is a day filled with uncertainties.
Uncertainties created by a famous intruder called.....
I will call it.....I will not give it power by naming it....C19
But I cannot avoid naming it, can I?
I cannot avoid hearing about it.
Every single day I have been hearing about it.
Nothing pretty though, nothing complimentary.
In a way we speak about it with respect, more fear....but fear and respect rolled into one.
We fear it because it only causes...death, destruction, disruption, displacement, despair, depression...social and physical degradation.
Amid all this chaos.
I unfortunately or fortunately feel excited.
Excited for the change this will bring...
I know my life will change forever.
