The world is currently shutting down its usual activities due to the fear of COVID-19, commonly called the coronavirus. Two of my activities have been cancelled for the next two weeks because anyone with a cough or sniffle could give anyone else a deadly disease. Theme Parks, some of the most internationally visited places in the world, are shutting down for obvious reasons. The grocery store was busier than usual today, though. Toilet paper was sold out, pasta was almost all gone. People are really less concerned about carbs and more concerned with wiping their butt.
While I want everyone to be healthy, I would like to think that COVID-19 is just a way for Earth’s inhabitants to have time to stay at home and chill for awhile. Stop the hustle and grind to get a paycheck and instead slow down and check into the moment. Catch up on that latest streaming show. Call people you haven’t talked to in awhile. Learn a new skill even if you may never show it off in person. Live as if the the world is changing. Laugh with me, just not on me.
Spend time at home cleaning through your old shit. Read up on the KonMari Method. Keep only what sparks joy in you. Eat consciously. Plant a garden and see what grows by the time this whole thing ends. How you take care of your home speaks volumes about you. Keep yourself clean and stop using so much toilet paper.
Don’t let this silly virus that originally came from a chicken make us become zombies to one another. Stay healthy, wash your hands, and trust in the power of the human body. It has been scientifically proven to be able to heal itself.
Stay Happy and Healthy,
The Happy President

Wash Your Hands, Please.
