Okay…it’s been EXACTLY two weeks since
Wisconsin’s Governor issued a STAY AT HOME order.
It’s been a bit longer…since the news people
started reporting on COVID-19.

People of the earth, this isn’t new news.
We’ve been doing this “thing” for 14 days.

Another 7 days and this “thing” becomes a habit.
Google it…you have time. 

News people…we get this COVID-19 thing.
People are and will continue to die.
Hospital staffs are being stressed.
There aren’t enough supplies including respirators.
The economy isn’t doing well right now - 
if you believe that is what makes the world a good place to live.

Only time and safe distancing will change the outcome.

I’ve been impressed by creative optimists.
The funny poems and stories,
cartoons and allegories.

Have you seen the talking dogs?
They are incredibly funny.
Especially the little white puppy’s
rendition of “I’ll Survive”.

Which I just found out is
the official COVID-19 fight song.
Googled it…I did!

People of the world, this “thing” will end .

Time to focus your energy on what you’re not getting done.

Put down your phones,
turn off the t.v.
and STOP wasting time on Facebook.
Half of that stuff is lies anyway.

Get outside and rake the lawn.
If you don’t have lawn,
grab a garbage bag and gloves
and go pick up trash.

People are saying
“this COVID-19 thing will make us all better”.

Hmm…
Not if we don’t start working on that habit now.

People of Wisconsin
as of now you only have 17 days left.
(Quarantine end date is still April 24 as of today.)

Get going on forming those new habits you’ve been saying will change us.

Or else…we’ll get some more quarantine time tacked on the end
because we have not had enough days to 
form that new habit…that will make us better!

Kindness…empathy…helping others.

The world is waiting
for our reawakening.
