Are You Looking Forward To The Holidays?

 It's only September, but already the weather is getting colder; at least here in New Jersey it is. October is upon us and when it arrives the holidays seem to roll in one after the other. With the corona virus still among us, this holiday will be different than any other. The holidays is already a busy and rough time for many people, adding a pandemic further complicate things. 

I plan to lay low this Thanksgiving, I will probably stay at home with my immediate family or maybe I will invite a few close family members over to my home. I am undecided, I am watching to see how the corona virus develops this winter. Whatever, I do I want to be safe doing it. Even though there are serious things happening in the world, I don't want it to take away the joy of the holidays. 

In just 5 short months it will be a year since the corona virus has been among us here in the United States. It's hard to believe that it's been that long. The year 2020 has proven itself to be very unpredictable. This year has been filled with surprises and difficulties, but what remains true is that we are a people of great strength and resilience. I'm sure that I speak for many when I say that, I wish I could wake up one day to the news that this pandemic has ended. I still remain hopeful that one day this pandemic will be a distant memory. Although, we will always respect and honor those who lost their precious lives in this global catastrophic event. Despite this, life goes on and we can persevere through this. 

Whatever your holidays plans are, I hope that it's a great one. I hope that you have a safe and joyous holiday season.
