Global Pandemic: A time of global crisis

Personal Pandemic: A time of personal crisis

In February I took a social media break. I intended it to be a month. I did not intend to stop writing. But here we are, mid April. No social media, no blogs. In 2020 shortly after the pandemic I quit facebook. It was a glorious time of self-reflection and I’ve never been back on facebook the same way.

Any pandemic; personal, global, or otherwise, should be a time to turn inward and reflect, to slow down, to listen to yourself.

I am in the midst of a personal pandemic, one in which I did not slow down soon enough to hear my own needs. It’s harder when the rest of the world is marching on I suppose.
