I Will Never Take These Things For Granted Again
When the virus finally loosens it's grip on Maine, and if I'm still standing above ground, I will never take these things for granted again.
Sitting down, in one of my favorite restaurants.
A day at work.
The cheers of a crowd at the Cross Insurance Center.
A handshake when seeing someone again.
A family gathering out to camp.
A day, completely without fret
Kids waiting for the school bus.
A routine checkup.
Sitting in a movie theater.
A fully stocked grocery store.
Talking with my neighbors.
A cruise ship sitting in Mt. Desert Narrows.
Getting a haircut.
A crowded dance floor.
Kids enjoying a Bangor playground.
A full breath of fresh air while standing on Schoodic Point.
When this is finally over, I will never take for granted again just being the person that I want to be, and being able to take part in all that life has given me.
Stay safe. #MaineStrong
