One of the worst side effects of the Pandemic is living with uncertainty in an extremely uncomfortable new normal.

Living moment from moment, not knowing if things will heal or if they will worsen. The worry about loved ones near and far can gnaw into the heart and the fears seem to ebb and flow. Days become weeks, and weeks become months.

At times it feels like the virus has no mercy, and chooses to spread uncontrollably.

The only controllable is me.

Two words help me deal with the waves of toxic energy.

I can learn something from this that will help me and others.

I can stay home and safe.

I can be productive and at peace.

I can wish you peace and health in uncertain times because I know

You CAN
