Because I can’t hug people, I suddenly really want to hug people, and yet, I’ve never really been a people person. Maybe I will be after this.
And, because I can’t talk to people face to face…I suddenly want to talk to people. I never really thought about it too much before., the human touch, and how we all need it.
Today, while necessity shopping, a lovely lady of senior years, wearing bright blue plastic gloves greeted me with a cheery ‘Good Morning’, from across the road. That meant a lot. People will beat it somehow. They find a way. Suddenly, I was a dry sponge, that soaked up any water coming my way. Strange, how much it warmed my soul. I felt a connection, and again, just a minute later, a tattooed young man, all bristling muscles, in his front garden, hosing it clean, water flooding out his gate, touching the toes of my boots, said ‘Hello,’
Hello.’ I answered, and again, my mood lifted just a little, just enough to get through another day.
Social distancing maybe. Voice distancing? Na.
Again, that strange warmth…glow whatever. People find a way. They always find a way. Thank God.

What a beautiful world we live in; this COVID-19 slowly turning introverts’ mindset but can’t escape the fact that people are always trying to connect no matter what. Even this will soon be over🙏🙏
