Many minds around the globe are occupied at the moment with thoughts of COVID-19 and its repercussions. The Corona Pandemic is reaching us all and reminding us of our shared humanity. We’re all on this planet, we’re all susceptible, and we are all connected. While we are connected we are each in the arch of our own life cycle, Mother Earth is also reminding us that cycles continue with or with out a pandemic. Spring is here in Germany, the crocuses, daffodils, hyacinths and tulips showing their colors. This visual reminder of the new life of spring – from the ground, from the trees, from the bushes – is helping me in this complex and novel time. All is change, that is life. Now we are changing from winter to spring and we are changing to a life of freedom of movement as we’ve known it for 100+ years to restricted physical interactions for the foreseeable future. What will be the next change?
