Please share any and all ways the lockdown has affected you and those around you emotionally, physically, mentally or situationally?
So much change in such short time!
I can see how this pandemic has changed the way businesses are run, the way people conduct themselves day to day. At first, I was bummed staying home all the time but now I am happy to do this. I am especially glad to have my family with me. I think if it were not for them my head would be spinning even more than it is now and I would struggle to keep my mental health in tact.They give me a reason to stay strong, stay healthy and continue to make the very best of the situation and they help me to be patient, positive and resourceful and enjoy basic pleasures of life.
I think
all lives matter
and we are all humans who need to shift our focus to using our energy to help one another.

I’m feeling sort of stuck in the middle. My family of 4 has been fortunate — we have reserves to draw on during this time when I’ve been partially employed. We haven’t been directly affected by illness from the pandemic, but we keep hearing about more and more people who have been affected. The first direct connection was a co-worker who lost a father due to the disease. More recently a cousin who works in the medical field was infected — fortunately she did not become seriously ill. There is a kind of looming dread that feels like more people close to us will be affected, it’s just a matter of time. There is another type of fear about one of us, or our aging parents, getting infected.
Has your focus shifted since the Black Lives Matter protests broke out?
