That overwhelming feeling of Anxiety. If I watch all the doom & gloom on the news I start getting chills & every little ache & pain has me convinced I have contracted the virus. Yesterday I took my temperature 3 times just to be sure. I had a dry throat & chills so I was convinced I was sick.
I prayed about it last night before going to sleep. Please give me the clarity I need & keep all of us healthy. Please Lord watch over the people in the world & help people with their anxiety in these trying times.
Then I switch gears & start thinking about my vegetable garden & the mammoth sunflowers I have growing on my window sill waiting for it to get warm enough to plant them outside. To me the garden & planting things is a reminder that life goes on. It will go on differently for sure. This pandemic will change the way people around the world do things. Maybe they will slow down & appreciate things more but honestly I doubt it. As soon as the shelter in place ban is lifted people will be out racing around in their cars, going to the malls to spend their economic stimulus pkg check.
So today I feel ok, the anxiety has subsided. the sun is shining & it will be 60 degrees. I did not watch the news this am, just looked up the weather & texted with a guy I work with making sure they are all ok.
I don't know what tomorrow will hold or even an hour from now, but right this second I am ok, my family is ok & my friends that I love are ok. So in the scheme of things that is what is important.
Todays song is a little Reggae :
Fortunate Youth : Peace love & unity
it's the vibe it's the vibe, and I know that you feel it tonight
Take some time, make some time, sit down relax and tell me just what's on your mind
I know you need all my strength, together we can ease the pain
Children, oh my children, please don't cry
We saying peace, and love and unity, yes we bring it across the sea,
