Keeping busy … gardening, sewing a dress for a friend, reading, and most of all painting and sketching. What helps now is visiting friends (we’re allowed one household to see). Also, we can see 6 people as long as it’s outdoors. This is in London,UK. At times there is a sense of tranquility but then there are days when I feel like I’m in a confined place not able to do what I would like. I dream of going to the seaside. But, because there are too many people going I’m waiting. Patience is being developed because of the Pandemic. Just grateful I’m OK and my relatives are OK. Strange times!

So lovely to hear this from London, Nina. Patience, if we can manage to develop it, is a wonderful “side-effect” of a time that is so terrible in so many ways. Sharing this experience is erasing so many borders.
PATIENCE IS A VIRTUE, POSSESS IT IF YOU CAN. ALWAYS FOUND IN WOMAN BUT NEVER FOUND IN MAN. A saying a little after Noah’s boat trip!
