Mary Detweiler (mdetweiler) | 18 comments With the coronavirus numbers going up instead of down, it is getting more difficult to wait for this pandemic to be over. I hope some of you find the following excerpt from When Doing Isn’t Enough helpful.

“We have all experienced times of waiting in our lives. We may not have liked it or chosen it; however, we have experienced it. We may have tolerated it or hated it or waited in anger or waited in fear or waited in expectancy. We may have decided to put the time to good use like reading a book or working on a laptop while in a waiting room or we may have paced or we may have slept. We may have smoked cigarettes or drank coffee or did any combination of any of these or any other of a multitude of additional coping mechanisms. However we have chosen to wait though, we have waited.”

Dennis Skirvin | 5 comments Thank you, Mary! Fortunately, we've had no virus in our family. Thank God. Grandkids are back to school and things are moving forward. We have resumed most normal activities. Yet, waiting can be difficult, full of anxiety, and oh so frustrating, but there's not much choice in the matter. And being new to this group, I think we all know where to look for consolation and patience. Peace be with you.

PS: I'll be sure to check out your book.
