Locked down While the Earth has this Chance to Heal Itself

Humans are on lockdown to give the planet a minute to rebirth. Turtles are able to lay eggs on the beaches without human interference, polluted skies are clearing, fish are jumping, birds are singing, the deer and the antelope are playing. Look at us.

We will be back but maybe we have learned a thing, or two. The universe is gifting us with a second chance to get it right - to discover (or rediscover) what is truly important to us. The gift is an equalizer. Everyone is affected equally - rich, poor, white, black, gay, straight - Finally.... We are one. Finally we are in this together and for each other. It is not your thing, or my thing - it is our thing.

It is as if we were spinning out of control - faster and faster and faster and the universe hit the brakes. Just stop, take a breath, begin anew. Begin anew with new and fresh and fair paradigms.

Families are getting to know each other again - eating together, playing games together. Yes, some are hungry and some are dying (I might be one, but I will die anyway someday so when is not mine to say).

We are becoming reacquainted with our true values, our belief systems - it is all there is now. We can see what is really important - set new goals. What a beautiful gift.

I do not mind being locked down while the earth has this chance to heal itself - it knows how to do that. Let us watch and learn. really important to you. Maybe set new goals, evaluate beliefs and wait for the opportunity to assist the first responders when they start stepping down from their duties and ease on back to life. Will we be there with open arms to love and embrace. It will be a new world, let us treat it with a little kindness, a little love. Let us pay attention and give thanks for this second chance.

I do not mind being locked down while the earth has this chance to heal itself - it knows how to do that. Let us watch and learn, and give thanks.
