Well put Aaron, especially the last paragraph that is very relevant with our generation, from Vietnam all the way to Iraq and Afghanistan.

All about perspective, agreed on the last paragraph.
Otherwise, best to avoid the on-line fear mongers that get off creating anxiety by spreading lies and mis-information.
There's so much good out there, but its easy to get lost. Thank your grocery store clerks, thank the staff at Walmart, thank your first responders and hospital staff. Hell, thank the staff at the liquor store and beer store.
Stay the blazes home, wash your hands and keep your distance, groceries once a week.

Anytime time I go to the Grocery Store or through a Drive Thru now I make sure I thank the staff for being there to keep us fed. ?

Your neighborhood might be a better car show than you think
Now that car shows are on hold and there are fewer and fewer excuses to leave the house and drive to a destination, consider car spotting on foot.

Well put Aaron,
what we will see in coming months will likely be hard for many to comprehend.
Yes currently its difficult to do the things we want. But we will survive. Its teaching me how much we truly don't need.
I am learning we got price greedy and don't shop local, IE community, province and country, now
we are in a spot where many things we can't have because we rely on China or south America to make our stuff.
We give massive corporations our money instead of someone local, because it cost $3 or even $8 more.
We as a society have become cheap and greedy all at the same time. This teaches us what some of us already knew,
how valuable some of these low cost jobs are, clerks, folks who stock shelves or drives a truck.
Many folks really have no idea what is required or care until something like this wakes them up.
The cost of freedom is not cheap, we are learning that. The cost of not being prepared is even worse.
The cost of relying on to many other countries besides our own is deadly.
BUT, we are also seeing how great Canadians can be, when the chips are down.
Watching people help others they don't even know, companies switching what they make, to make what we need.
If we look at what is going on around us, we can see many great things. Appreciate what we have more.
Little is said of, past 2 or 3 months, but your going to see places never re-open, friends you didn't realize
were that up against it and ended up bankrupt. Remember to spend here, to think of someone after the fact
as well as now.
Also, remember governments at ever level are trying to help, but remember some are trying to use this to have
even more control when its over, becareful not to give up what many died for to give us.
This is a lesson, we need to learn from and be better for what ever the future brings.
Maybe teaching your kids, things you never thought they would need is now important.
How to cook, sew or be a little handy. the list is endless. be kind, becareful, learn and be better in the future.
