Hi.
This week has been truly awful with all the news about this virus.
Watching country's going into melt down, and how its all going to affect us is pretty scary stuff. Even going about your daily routine, you can see it taking effect with panic buying and work places taking extra steps to reduce risks. Everyone is talking, either about there personal health or the impact it may have on them financially.
The news channels just seem to be constantly broadcasting it, as well as social media.
This is obviously something that is scaring the wit's out of the public (and for good reason too).
For me personally, after seeing and reading all this stuff on a daily basis, its really getting me extremely anxious to the point of feeling anxiety.
Today ive made the conscious decision to stop watching the news and stay away from eavesdropping on social media about it.
Like all of us we've all got to earn a crust to keep a roof over our heads, and our jobs and health all depend on this. We've got worries about our elderly loved ones and friends.
If you have any elderly neighbours i think it would a life line to make sure they are ok. Even if you don't want to have personal contact, there only a phone call away. It must be a frightening experience for them if there all alone,
Having someone to talk to and knowing there not alone will be a great help.
Today though i decided to get away from it all on the bike.
I picked a nice secluded route out into the countryside and just took in all the magnificent views. The sun was shining and spring is now really making an appearance. Halfway through, i stopped and watched all the spring lambs dancing around in the fields amongst the frantic noise of the birds. Nothing could of been further away from all the doom and gloom at the moment.
It seems life does go on outside our bubble of tv news and social media.
Getting back home i now feel much better for getting out there on my bike. Obviously the problems haven't gone away, but if cycling for a couple of hours helps I'm well up for that 😊👌
