These are the things I choose to focus on for peace of mind right now.
Outside my window the Azalea shrubs are in full bloom. We have red and white or almost white with a pale pink tint to them. Although they produce a flower or two starting in January, they really display their beauty late February and March.
I started this yesterday and added color this morning.

Art is a wonderful andidote to sadness, panic and worry. THAT is the truth.
We have a series of lovely sunny days to really appreciate that meditative love of drawing and painting.
It's not easy with all the horrible news around and us and everything being cancelled.
Visitors are not coming to visit now, trips are off, no plays or sports, and "self-distancing" has become the new phrase along with self-quarantine. Our church is cancelled and our social events have been postponed indefinitely. We all worry about our financial security. So...we have to take a lot of deep breaths and try to be outside as much as possible, find ways to slow down, read, watch happy movies or fun mysteries, and love our art. Seeing your flowers is a joy.
