From March 2020 to now has been a very strange time for everyone one way or another with the Coronavirus lockdown. As much as it has been for our own health and safety, we have been taken away from our friends, family, etc even though most of us have been able to stay in touch with online. Even though of we have access to get online and know how to, not everyone is lucky. Just because we may not have proof of people who cannot get online for whatever reason doesn't mean that there aren't those people.
This report isn't just about awareness of the lockdown and socializing for people who face disabilities, mental health, other problems, etc but awareness is for everyone to raise awareness of life has changed one way or another for everyone.
Valentine's day is coming up and most people haven't only probably not just seen their partners for 12 months near enough but their friends and family. Only because we don't always see the proof doesn't mean there aren't people who don't have anyone in their lives.
In the past, we have had other things that have limited or and distancing people from seeing one another such as wars, etc, where they sent letters, telegrams, etc to one another. Now we have the internet which is better access but as I said even though there's a lot of us lucky to have access to it not necessarily for all of us.
There are all sorts of reasons why people can't online why they can't such as very little or no IT skills, needing online safety skills, which make them or and their family, etc worry that may get in with the wrong sort of people or and some people may be vunable and overprotected by others, etc. Some people may not able to afford any sort of devices. This could be one, some, or even all of these reasons.
Same as but life is how we make it, then it's not.
Waking up and seeing not much to get up for, then there is.
Turn on your device get online, go to the bathroom, get a cuppa.
Have yourself a bit to eat and wake up, then get on that exercise machine and work out.
Get on your online chats, courses, etc.
Go shopping etc.
The Sooner the evening comes time for tea, watching something on device or tv, have yourself a drink before going to bed, the day is over and maybe not much different tomorrow.
Fight the mind.
Fight the mind by saying or and writing what's on the mind.
Every thought builds into the fire.
Just keep on saying or and writing it down, no one needs to know unless you want them to.
Just manage it in your way, then no one is in control of you other than you.
Depression will keep on getting to you if you let it don't let it get to you.
Keep the mind busy, with anything you enjoy like hobbies, interests, and careers.
Only go for counseling if you want.
You don't want to end your life, you want to end your pain.
It's okay not to be okay.
Don't be scared to tell someone what's bothering you but no one is forcing you to talk either.
Your not alone, your not crazy, your not mad and not round the bend, don't let others tell you otherwise.
No one should make you feel you shouldn't be talking to them.
Despite counselors etc been under privy laws etc, it's understandable why you may not want to tell others your business even though they may not tell anyone else.
We can do this.
We have fallen but we will get back up again.
Yes, that is easy to say but it's hard to get through without you helping yourself and letting others help you but that's up to you.
There seems to be no light at the end of the tunnel, whether there is or not is hard to say but some sort of life is sure to go on.
We cannot be lockdown as we are forever.
It's hard to see that we will go back to how we were but there's sure to be some improvement to what it is now.
Who am I to say keep positive but try to keep strong, we know it's not easy at all, I know it's hard to believe in yourself and easy for me to say but you are doing very well?
Just because I am stronger than I was doesn't mean I haven't forgotten what it was like to feel as if it was the end of the world.
We have got through but not everyone does.
We never saw ourselves getting through this lockdown.
Okay, there is still time to come but we keep going because we have got this far and we are still here.
Yes, I know that's easy for me to say because not everyone is still here, I am sorry to hear lives are lost, sorry we cannot change whatever has happened and our thoughts are for them.
Hopefully, we can save more lives through this depression but then it's not depression we are just fighting with our minds due to this lockdown and it's hard to see the end.
I love poetry and I love you.
I love you and I love writing about you.
I always wrote poetry about you and even before I met you.
In the time of not seeing you through this lockdown is even more reason to write about poetry about you, even I see you and or write to you online.
Maybe we met online and not see one another in person at all other than video chat, maybe facetime, zoom, teams, etc who knows other than us and people we may have told?
Let's not give up because of the lockdown.
Let's keep our love strong.
Leave the past behind.
The past is well behind but hate is a very strong word.
No matter how hard you try some things you cannot forgive.
There comes a time you have no feelings at all.
I have long walked away from you but not from my words and now I love someone new.
