We’ve Only Just Begun (thank you, The Carpenters!)

Thinking about what it feels like to have our world turned upside down and things we thought were a bit more stable feeling a tad precarious, I thought of lambs learning to walk (since sheep are my favorite animals 😊). It’s sometimes scary or uncomfortable finding our “new normal” but we’re in this together, and little by little we’ll find new ways to thrive (and new ways to greet without hugging for the time being) as we continue to keep the vulnerable safe . . . we’re in this together, and we’ve only just begun! Thank you, The Carpenters, for your great music! May God bless you, protect you, and give you peace!

Music: “We’ve Only Just Begun” (The Carpenters)

Words by me: We’ve only just begun to know a new kind of “normal”. No going back to the way things were. Before pandemic’s done, we’ll try creative ways to live our lives. We’ll start out walking and learn to run. Greeting without hugs is still new to us. Learning more science along the way. Now social distancing’s a thing we do. Keeping the vulnerable safe – together. And when each morning comes, we’ll smile – so much good life ahead. We’ll find new ways in which we can thrive. Greeting without hugs is still new to us. Learning more science along the way. Now social distancing’s a thing we do. Keeping the vulnerable safe together, together. And when each morning comes, we’ll smile – so much good life ahead. We’ll find new ways in which we can thrive. (and yes, we’ve just begun)
