Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

We spent most of the day with our younger daughter and two grandsons.  The three year old was so joyous to come through the front door.  It has been hard for these children.  I won't underestimate how confusing and difficult it is for them.  We want to do what we can to help, and we've agreed to keep isolated except from each other.  We're seeing our one year old grandson tomorrow.  Our kids need support, and as long as we are transparent and honest about any outside contacts, we can do this.  If we have to isolate from each other again we can, but everyone needs a break right now, and we're following all the rules.  It's clear that our lives won't be back to normal for a year or two, if ever.  So we have to trust our own judgement and scientific guidance.  There is still so much information missing and we don't even know if getting the virus provides any immunity if you recover.  How many have had it without symptoms?  In our state nobody is really getting tested unless you are a provider or are sent to a hospital.  We're all in the dark, but our family is trying to lead with love and compassion.
