Based upon numerous studies by
sociologists and psychologists throughout the years, their results have told us
for the most part that our perceptions about life are based on expectations we
encounter whether based on what we are told, see, hear, experience or believe. And, from that conclusion, many people decide
what reality is in their lives.
In these last five months of the Covid-19 virus pandemic, it is interesting to note from my conversations with parishioners, family members and others, how we are still trying to hold on to a life that offers so few comparisons to what was versus what is reality now. In doing so, people voice their fears, confusions and hopes about what will happen so they can cope with whatever changes will stick with us in the future.
