A blog post by Gail Snow Moraski and the Rest of Our Beautiful World
Starting a list and welcome contributions to it about what the coronavirus can’t do or take from us. I’ve got lots of thoughts on this, but only listing four that come immediately to mind to allow for others to weigh in. So, please do so!
The “big C” — in current times, this reference is to Coronavirus/COVID-19, but like the usual term it references, “cancer” — can’t do, take from us, or keep us from:
- Spring from springing
- Babies from arriving
- Laughing with a neighbor (from a six-foot distance, of course!)
- Singing our favorite song
Please add to the list by commenting below or e-mailing me at gail.moraski@allintheresults.com. Let’s take the power away from this virus and show it who’s boss!

Keep us from admiring the beauty of the beautiful spring blossoms on trees!
The coronavirus can’t stop:
Blossoms from blossoming
Kids from growing
Music from cheering us
Friends from helping us
Fresh air from healing us
Exercise from strengthening us
Faith from guiding us
