A wise old friend of mine posted a few weeks ago, “You’re doing great, everybody! It’s ok that it’s hard, everybody’s first pandemic is gonna be tough! Keep it up and remember: we only have to do one day per day.”
I’ve repeated “everybody’s first pandemic is gonna be tough” out loud and in my mind a lot of times since then. It helps.
To it, I can only add: tomorrow will be different.
If you had a tough day today, tomorrow will be different. Don’t worry.
If you had a smooth day today, tomorrow will be different. Be ready and don’t panic.
You’ll get through this, doing one day per day.
