I think strange times are here to stay maybe... maybe times have always been strange but we are seeing more clearly or maybe we aren't seeing clearly at all...
In some ways, it can feel like we are living in a post-Covid world, but it is clear from even a passing glance at the news that Covid is still here... and the Delta variant is a concern. It is especially concerning because I fear that it will be hard to go back from where we are even if that becomes necessary. I mean, I know some people will but... for many... I wonder.
These are my thoughts when I would rather be contemplating trips and seeing friends and hearing as much live music as I possible can...
