SOMEDAY…

SOMEDAY.  SOMEDAY WE WILL LOOK BACK ON THIS TIME AND REMEMBER.

SOMEDAY. OUR GRANDCHILDREN OR CHILDREN WILL BE TAUGHT ABOUT COVID-19 AND WHAT HAPPENED TO OUR ENTIRE WORLD.

OUR YOUTH WILL BE TAUGHT ABOUT THE TIME WHEN PEOPLE HAD TO STAY HOME AND SCHOOLS WERE CLOSED.  YOU COULDN’T PLAY IN A PLAYGROUND OR GO TO A NATIONAL PARK. RESTAURANTS WERE CLOSED AND CHURCHES TOO.

PEOPLE HAD TO STAY 2 METERS APART . BUSINESSES SHUT DOWN AND PEOPLE WORRIED ABOUT MONEY AND ABOUT LOSING THEIR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF THEIR LOVED ONES.

PEOPLE HOARDED TOILET PAPER AND WORE MASKS AND GLOVES OUT IN PUBLIC.

SOMEDAY. SOMEDAY OUR CHILDREN WILL BE TAUGHT THAT DURING THE PANDEMIC PEOPLE LEARNED TO LOVE THEIR DAILY WALKS . 

FOLKS WAVED AT THEIR NEIGHBOURS AND HELPED EACH OTHER BY CHEERING ON FRONT LINE WORKERS AND DELIVERING GROCERIES TO THOSE IN NEED.

PEOPLE BECAME VERY CREATIVE AND MANY NEW SONGS , BOOKS , AND PAINTINGS ARRIVED.  PEOPLE INVENTED AMAZING THINGS.

FAMILIES AND FRIENDS MET EACH OTHER ON A COMPUTER SCREEN AND CHATTED AND PLAYED GAMES THAT WAY.

SOMEDAY. SOMEDAY OUR CHILDREN WILL LEARN ABOUT WHEN PEOPLE TURNED BACK TO GOD AND FOUND PEACE BECAUSE OF IT. 

SOMEDAY.  SOMEDAY OUR GRANDCHILDREN WILL BE TAUGHT ABOUT HOW MUCH WE VALUED HUGS.  HOW A SIMPLE HUG BROUGHT US THE MOST JOY AND THE BIGGEST SMILE.

SOMEDAY.
