Thoughts on my mind this morning ... I was thinking that one person commented that I and others think the future is bleak. I think that bothered me a lot as I completely think the very opposite. I've never thought the future was bleak. I'm realistic enough to know that for some time to come we will see things, hear things that will be very disturbing. We've never experienced a pandemic before. We are told by the White House to expect such especially this week. Getting back to the future ... I have hope and I know in my Heart our world will be a new world ... I feel people have experienced so much together during all this that they will be bonded for life. I feel life will be good again ... sad for the loss of so many ... but, a good place again. We are all being forced to stop ... we have time to look around us. We see, hear things we never had time to hear before ... our life was too fast-paced and no way to slow it down. Now ... the whole world has had to stop ... now, we are getting priorities in order as the drama of the coronavirus pandemic plays out ... we are learning what's most important in Life. People are most important ... love, caring, giving, helping ... being the best person we can possibly be is most important. We are learning this as our Hearts break for what's happening. Sometimes, like I've had to do so many times through time ... we have to learn important things the 'hard' way. This is the worse way possible ... that's why we have to love, care, give, help each other. We need each other ... we aren't alone in this world ... we have to remember that. Our actions affect others in some way or other. Our words do the same ... all I know to say in the face of so much 'bad' ... we have to be the best person we possibly can by loving, caring, giving, sharing, helping. No, I don't think the future is bleak and never have. Sad, painful ... disturbing for some time to come for all that's happened ... going to happen ... we can't change it overnight ... I know that somehow, someway ... one day everything will be alright again in a new way ... good way.

Even when the virus is history, there will be long negative effects and that's just reality.

Yes ... you are very right, John, there will be 'long negative effects' after this is over. Not only that ... oh my, but there will also be many, many positive effects ... I don't forget to look at the good, life-saving, meaning things people are risking their lives to do for others ... I feel that will carry on into the future. That's why we can hope ... I believe so much goodness will come out of this into our world ... overcoming all the bad things. This is only my Gloria opinion, John. I'm sure you are thinking, sensing what lies ahead. Yes, you are right ... there really will be long, negative effects ... reality is also, many ... many good effects too.
