Defiance
A movement which not only defies an imposing society but also a worldwide pandemic. So loud, so unstoppable that no one can hide from it, not even through the Coronavirus. With all the wrong being highlighted by the movement and virus, it proves nearly impossible to find peace during this time.

Small Social Gatherings
Small social gatherings...oh so fun, so fun!
They remind me of the good old times when life was normal and we could meet and get close to anyone we wanted. Now connecting with others comes at a price. I am willing to take the risk as long as I feel safe. Perhaps I really take the risk so that I can live vivaciously in the present and enjoy the few fleeting minutes of bliss my soul gets from being around friends.

The New Normal
It’s as though life is the same, just with a mask. People commuting here and there but with a barrier in between. It seems like all is normal again, but it really is not. Is this how things will be for a long time?
