While I am not a Zoom person and have just about lost touch with everyone I used to connect with, I am aware that the few who share their lives with me through text and telephone have helped me feel less isolated when the alone-ness is almost too much. I do wonder what it will be like to be in daily touch with people in Tai Chi classes and over lunch in restaurants, or dinners in each other's homes. Right now, that feels overwhelming. Like someone who has recently gained sight or hearing, it may be overwhelming. I look forward to figuring that out whenever that time arrives. Meanwhile, your writings bring me a welcome and remarkable connection I never expected. A stranger, half my age, sharing emotional experiences that make me wonder how you know so much about me?! Your words are some of the most healing in my world right now. Thank you.
I know! It is hard to imagine not being totally overstimulated by an in person world, isn't it? A hug, so intimate. A yoga class, so packed with bodies. We will have some adjusting to do for sure. And maybe we will never be the same? I have no idea...thank you for your generous feedback. It means so much to me.
