How is the coronavirus pandemic affecting your life right now? Tell us about your experiences, feelings, and thoughts.

This past weekend, my husband, daughter and I met my brother, his boyfriend and our niece in Cold Spring, NY. It was a perfect day to walk around, picnic on the Hudson and just be together after too many months apart. As we sat, ate and laughed, I looked at the water and noticed these three posts. I felt like they represented myself, my husband and our daughter. Since the pandemic began and our lives changed in ways we could never imagine, we've kept our heads above water because we have been in it together. We each have our own space, but not too much to keep us separated at such a scary time. This photo makes me feel happy. This photo reminds me that life is about family and anyone you feel close to, that you're all in it together in one way or another.
