    • Terrific write, just be careful that pain doesn’t become pleasurable.
      🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

      • hello dearest Benny I understand what you mean my pain is beguiling thank you for the advise 💕

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Amazing write my friend, just keep moving forward. It’s easier said than done I know, but eventually the clouds will part, and let in the light. Appreciate you.

      • hello dearest Damian yesterday was just a hard day thank you for the words of encouragement 💕

    • Moods often bring darkness that is hard to swallow.

      • hello dearest Adagio thank you my friend for being here I hope you listened to the song 💕 it is haunting…

  • We’re in the thick of Summer time, baby. Have drink and a drive and go see what you can find! DON’T do that, actually!! I’m just getting into the spirit of things. Still, enjoy your summer. It won’t last long. How many you got left?

    • Powerfully penned, Elke. A very clever write my friend, it kinda shows that humans never seem to learn. Excellent work, with a great message. Appreciate you.

      • Thank you so much for reading and writing such a kind and highly appreciated comment, dear Damian!

    • Interesting take on pandemics. They certainly were not handled very well, but the vaccine for the modern one was was handed out fairly, in general. It was new territory so mistakes were made. I got all my shots and am glad of it. I do agree that there were too many restrictions put on the public at least here in the US.
      This piece really made me feel like I was sitting there with the two ‘women’. You certainly have a talented pen Elke. To be transported to the moment you describe is really a rare and wonderful talent. I’m happy the you share it with us. I’d be happy to slip and fall in your direction. 😉 💙

      • Your appreciation and encouragement made my day, dear Jim! 1001 times thank you!
        Of course I exaggerated in my writing but anyway, I think that every crisis comes along with a learning task. I’m afraid, concerning the Corona pandemic humankind has failed the test.

    • You are a very good storyteller. To board people in their own homes to prevent the spread …yeah history did repeat itself with that. The difference is that people spoke online and got used to that, then speaking face to face. Thought-provoking piece.

      • Thank you so much for your kind and supportive comment dear Fià! There are even more parallels: in times of the plague, many people tried to overcome their helplessness and desperation by celebrating hilariously on graveyards and other scary places. On these occasions people used to wear facial masks!
