It’s been a very long year-plus of isolation and missing the faces of those around us. I was standing in a check out line this past week and the person behind me commented how nice it was to actually see all of someone’s face. It’s been almost impossible to communicate even a courteous smile or recognition wearing a mask. There were certainly benefits for doing so, but it’s nice to be getting back to “normal”. In this short conversation we commented that the physical, social and spiritual toll COVID-19 has had on virtually everyone was quite high.
Even in the studio we’re enjoying being able to more readily open the doors to a wider variety of work. My mask is still handy for those with extenuating health concerns or persons not comfortable without the use of one, but we’re moving forward. Let’s smile. We have a lot of time to make up for!
