No real point to this post, other then to remind my fellow members to appreciate all we have in life, especially the things that make us happy. If you all can do one thing for me during this difficult time, just hug your families a bit tighter and enjoy the positives that this pandemic forced upon us, family time, bike riding, walks, new hobbies, disconnect, etc.

Appreciate you all for the constant distractions!

My condolences Brny11. I know the feeling. I lost a relative to Covid-19 too last week. These last few weeks, definitely puts things in perspective. In a matter of a week, here in NYC, everything changed. I decided to take a step away from my cell phone/texting. I now watch tv, exercise, read, and on TRF. Our love ones will always be with us spiritually. God bless.
