What a time to be alive...


I feel like I first need to acknowledge that last years goal for here was such a flop!
Whoops.

Alas, I am still here, and I guess I shall continue to post irregularly for now.

I wanted to check in, for anyone reading this, due to the chaotic times we are all living through right now as I type this. It feels like society is bursting at the seams with anxiety, rage, and fear. I have never lived through anything like this before. I don't think any of us have. Something like this hasn't happened for over 100 years ago, and toilet paper probably wasn't an issue then. I digress, these times are indeed scary.

What can you do about it? A few things in fact!

Social Distancing. 
You might be seeing this all over the place, and maybe you are already doing this. Stay home. Just stay put. This might be hard to do, especially for any socialites or workaholics reading this, you're probably thinking I am crazy. Maybe I am; however, staying home is the most responsible thing you can do right now. The sooner everyone is on board with that, the sooner this will pass.
When social distancing you can catch up on your favorite TV shows, Movies, Hobbies, Books, anything that you want! Good thing we are in the 21st century where we can video chat with our friends and family if we begin to get lonely. Social distancing can be what you make of it!

Hygiene.
For those who just feel like they cannot do the above, then here is what you should be doing. Washing you hands. Sure, you can also use hand sanitizer, but soap is far more effective! Make sure you are not touching your face or anyone else's for that matter, especially with unwashed hands. Of course be mindful when out in public as to what you are touching and just try to wash up as fast as you can. There are reminders for this everywhere it seems!

Self Care.
This has been a terribly anxiety inducing time for everyone. Whether you are staying home or going to work, please take some time for yourself during the day to check in with a loved one, do something nice for yourself, talk to someone about your own feelings. Remember you are not alone in all of this and this will eventually pass once everyone does their part. 


Stay safe out there.

Love and Light,
Ghost
