Life in quarantine is no fun for anyone, no matter how old you are. However, fashion design and sewing are things that have kept all of us alive and in good spirits. Many people have become involved in sewing masks and hospital gowns. Sewers have saved many lives on this planet. We should all thank the sewers who have sewn billions of masks to keep all of us safe from catching Covid-19. We should really thank every sewer on the planet for their contribution. Thanks so much for ALL of your hard work in keeping us safe from Covid-19! Two things I learned from this our Covid-19 experience is resilience and perseverance. I believe that every person is built with both resilience and perseverance built into their DNA. Life is never easy, no matter what decade you are living in, but we all should be grateful that we are all still living and that we will pass through this dark storm soon. You should always stay positive and keep yourself busy, no matter how dark the days may be. There will be brighter days ahead to look forward to, in the coming months and years. I find looking at the blue sky everyday really helps me to forget the dark days of the past. Keep living and enjoy your life to the fullest because life is really short.
