Blogging in uncertain times

I find writing cathartic, I always have. It helps me deal with emotions and process my feelings - possibly even make sense of, or find meaning in, the world around me and the people around me. It may even be my attempt to make sense of myself... However this time it also feels like a social diary or commentary - a record of an historic event from a rural Samuel Pepys!

Possibly I will need to look back in order to understand what actually happened, and to understand my feelings and reactions in trying to make sense of what was going on. The panic buying, the stockpiling, the immense worry that we are under financially to ride this crisis out and have something to still show for it at the end. Change, and being changed - the huge potential for this that this Pandemic has. Let's all hope that change is about being the best we can be and the best we can make of things...
