Like so many people in this country and across the planet, I am isolating myself. Luckily with family, so I’m not totally alone, but nevertheless it is a strange and seemingly sudden change to how we live.
One thing that impresses me is how we have all adapted so very quickly to this new reality. How companies have changed how they work, how authorities have changed how we do things, and how regular citizens have, for the most part, agreed to change how they live their lives.
No one has a clear idea of how long this will take, or how the world will look once it is over. We take things one day at a time now, there’s no other way.
But, on the upside, it is a chance to catch up with loads of things that our busy lives precluded us from doing. Listening, reading, experimenting and making. Personally I’m finding that there’s time for a doing a range of things that I’ve been meaning to get to for ages now.
Perhaps I’ll post about some of the things I’m finding time to do.
Whatever you’re up to, whatever you’re finding to fill your time, I hope you’re well and safe.
I am Ashley Elsdon
