The second wave of the pandemic is hitting our city hard. The hospital’s isolation wards are getting full and some confirmed COVID-19 cases are starting to require to wait in line, a very worrying situation.
I’m still practicing my alternate working days routine, still finding it very productive. Spent a lot of time practicing Chinese calligraphy while working from home, finished writing the thousand letters classic (千字文) in traditional script once again. While at the studio, I’ve been spending more time doing R&D and began cleaning and reorganizing the space. Having more time alone seems to be helping me clear up my thoughts, set priorities to the more important things, and giving me many new ideas for work.
I’m getting used to these isolated days. Nonetheless, the prolonged social distancing isn’t entirely satisfying. I seriously miss seeing my calligraphy class, going to fellowship, and meeting friends. When can we stop wearing masks and chat openly and freely with our loved ones?
Oh Lord, the pandemic in our city and around the world is still worsening with no ends to be seen, can you hear our cries for help? ??
