Denial
Sue Rasmussen
Never could I have imagined how different our Here and Now could be from our Now and Then. How the world has changed this year. It seems overnight that our 'normal' lives have vanished. Now, our lives are defined by quarantine, masks, isolation, distancing and unimaginable mortality. We are discouraged, disheartened, alone. We long to return to the "then", free to see our friends and unconcerned about an invisible threat. We are in the Here and Now- our new normal.
