I wonder what we will think

When we look back at these unusual times

Days of physical isolation

Limited travel

Closed schools

Working from home

Unanswered questions

Worries and fears

What will we take away from this experience?

Will we be wiser?

More compassionate?

Will we be less materialistic?

Will we be more thankful for all that we have?

Will we have made new friends and connections?

Will our priorities have changed?

When the ground is plowed

The harvest is bountiful

The longer the stew simmers

The more delicious it is

Difficulties need to be followed by insight

Otherwise suffering is wasted time
