Home

For most of us this will be about 8 weeks of being home.
All of us are going a bit stir crazy and and feel sluggish by now.
When am I going to get that list of things I have to do done.
Has turned into Binge watching and eating instead.
A time when 2 hour baths are possibly the key to sanity.
And NO pounding on the door will not get me out!

Home has become our safe haven.
Family and friends important once again.
Keeping in touch ironically a way of life now.
Laughing at the Toilet Paper jokes over and over.
Reading post that make tears come to our eyes.
Seeking old friends and family for comfort and hope.

All of us trying to cope and understanding when we just cant.
In some way this has turned into a much needed pause.
A pause that has given us time to reflect on our lives
Showing us that life can be great and harsh all in one sitting.
Time to ask ourselves whats  next as if anyone of us knows.
Time to change what we can and hold on to what we need.

Home is not just an abode a Place to live anymore.
Home is that person, place, or thing that keeps us going.
It has become that community of people we love.
It is that idea in our heads to help each other how we can.
It has become a way of life we cannot afford to forget again.
