3. Social Distancing

KEEP AWAY FROM PEOPLE. No casual touching, kissing, hugging and all that mushy stuff. Learn to live with yourself. Even if not for you, do it for others especially the elderly around you. As symptoms take a week or two to show forth, you will have passed it to an entire community if you disregard all the noise that has been made about social distancing. Give at least 2 metres distance from people. So not to be tools in the hands of the ‘evil one’.

Some call me David. Others, Emerie. Others, (unfortunate fellows) Biggie. I like to think that I have sense and that is why I write too. Otherwise, I draw and paint and sing (in the bathroom) and love to make people laugh. I love to understand how things work and that’s why I love DIY videos and YouTube of course.
