@Emerald Cool beans, ty ? I'll read it in the morning. Time for bed?

Hi, are you still in the mood? I have to do some letting go. Its weighing heavy on my mind.

@Preety_India That's so nice❤?

@Serotoninluv Excellent! Great find❤

poem: "Lockdown Yes there is fear. Yes there is isolation. Yes there is panic buying. Yes there is sickness. Yes there is even death. But, They say that in Wuhan after so many years of noise You can hear the birds again. They say that after just a few weeks of quiet The sky is no longer thick with fumes But blue and grey and clear. In Venice swans and fish are back in the once filthy canals, The waters now crystal clear, dolphins dance. They say that in the streets of Assisi People are singing to each other across the empty squares, keeping their windows open so that those who are alone may hear the sounds of family around them. They say that a hotel in the West of Ireland Is offering free meals and delivery to the housebound. Today a young woman I know is busy spreading flyers with her number through the neighbourhood So that the elders may have someone to call on. Today churches, synagogues, mosques and temples are preparing to welcome and shelter the homeless, the sick, the weary. All over the world people are slowing down and reflecting, All over the world people are looking at their neighbours in a new way, All over the world people are waking up to a new reality To how big we really are, To how little control we really have, To what really matters, To Love. So we pray and we remember that Yes there is fear. But there does not have to be hate. Yes there is isolation. But there does not have to be loneliness. Yes there is panic buying. But there does not have to be meanness. Yes there is sickness. But there does not have to be disease of the soul. Yes there is even death. But there can always be a rebirth of love. Wake to the choices you make as to how to live now. Today, breathe. Listen, behind the factory noises of your panic. The birds are singing again The sky is clearing, Spring is coming, And we are always encompassed by Love. Open the windows of your soul And though you may not be able to touch across the empty square, Sing." Fr. Richard Hendrick, OFM March 13, 2020

I agree. They aren't needed if you're ready.

@Arthur nice pic!

Hehe?

Your welcome.

Any post in response to Johnny5 most recent post (today) will be hidden. The reason is that his post has been hidden for trolling and he has been dealt with in accordance to forum guidelines. Thanks

It's no problem?

On many new phones, you hold your finger down on the pic and options pop up, you hit search "google for this image" and it will show if there are any matches. Ppl need to realize this technology exists and you have to be careful. Most pics are fine though. However, I've already PM'd a member to notify that they have a privacy breach. I don't have time to go through all the pics on this thread so, everyone check your pic!

A photo can cause a privacy issue under one circumstance that I can think of and here it is... If you post a pic that is posted on google somewhere. Such as, you post a pic that is your avatar pic on Twitter, for instance. You can check your own pic to make sure it's safe to post by searching using "google reverse image search".

Thank you? How sweet are you?

@Preety_India ?

Be suspicious if you've only had a few PM messages with someone and then you are asked to chat off forum.

How can you be forced to do this? Just don't give it out. I'm assuming you mean via PM, because doing it on open forum isn't allowed.

No, not thus far. This is from forum guidlenes: "No posting personal information such as address, phone number, or email" Also, no Fb, instagram, skype, etc accounts on open forum. No meet up groups.

"Someone you loved"

So, a couple hours ago the health department called my work and decided to allocate 200 of the N95 masks to us that our administrator went to pick up. ? We might run out of gloves, but we have some masks now!

We aren't using ppe unless someone is symptomatic. We just don't have enough to even wear one all day, each day.
