Pro or Con

When I was a kid I didn’t plan much in advance. It was basically a day by day frame of mind. As I got older my plans were pushed back days, weeks, months, and years. I saved for the future, for trips, and the unknown. I tried to imagine where I would live, who I would be, and would I marry?
After I had children my plans became decades away, my plans became my children’s plans and far in the distance some wonder of what will become of me. The day to day spontaneity became less and less.

But since this pandemic has hit, since I came back from Costa Rica, and since my health has deteriorated; my plans, although fewer and much quieter, have returned to being nearer and sooner.
For many this pandemic is a huge Boulder in their life plans.
But for me, it’s exactly what I needed.
