Day ??? in lockdown. Are people still counting at this point? It feels like we've been in lockdown forever. Okay maybe not forever, but still, this has lasted wayyy longer than anyone expected.
I know it's tough. I know people are getting more and more impatient and restless. I know being home (and this pandemic in general) may not be everyone's ideal situation, but the best we can do is to try and remain optimistic. I'm not saying that you have to be happy and positive all the time, but know that even with these challenges and obstacles, there will be better days ahead. It's the ability to acknowledge your tough situation, deal with it accordingly (if possible), and then continuing to move forward.
Take a minute right now to just breathe. Close your eyes and take 3 deep breaths. *inhale* *exhale* Now that you have taken a minute to release some stress and frustration, I hope that you will realize that being at home is not the worst case scenario. There are people out there who don’t have the privilege of being home & with loved ones. Our frontliners are sacrificing hours on end, enduring such a heavy physical, mental, and emotional strain. So yes, this lockdown can be frustrating, but think of it as your positive contribution to help the overall situation.
In the meantime, you can take a look at my Sunrise/Sunset gallery. I know that watching the sunset always makes me feel a bit better so I thought I would share some of the prettiest sunrises and sunsets I've seen in hopes of sharing some peace and happiness with those who might need it.

Please continue to stay home (if you can) & stay safe. Again, I’m always here if someone ever needs a friend to talk to.
Love Always,
Bella
