Meet in the...

Coexisting with Covid

Slowly,

slowly...

step by 

cautious step...

We are coming out of our homes.

We are seeing each other in the streets.

We are coming back together!

And as we
move forward,
we are also
falling back 
into our old, 
familiar habits...

"Why AREN'T you wearing a mask?"

"Why ARE you wearing a mask?"

"Why don't you care about public health?"

"Why don't you care about civil liberties?"

"Why don't you listen to SCIENCE?"

"Why don't you listen to REASON?"


Here's a question for us all...

Why don't we
STOP 
​
JUDGING
and 
focus on

CARING
for each other?


It is certain
that we will not all
agree
 about how to
interact
in our new
COVID-conscious
world.

We're all wondering...
​
When
and
where
is it
appropriate
or
necessary
to wear masks?

How close
is
TOO CLOSE...

At the store?
At the beach?
At restaurants?
On the sidewalk?
On the hiking trail?

When can we get back to
normal life?


We're all thinking
about these questions...

and we're all coming
to
different
conclusions.

What works for
one state 
or
one city
or
one neighborhood
or
one household, 
might not work
for another.

We're creating a
new
"normal"
and we have
to do this
together.

We have an
opportunity
to create these
new norms
with
grace
and
empathy
and
compassion.

We can do this!

We can care
SELFLESSLY
for one another.

Let's give each other
a break
and
give each other
encouragement
and try to
keep each other
​safe 
while we
create our 
"new normal"
TOGETHER.
