This short article is a little out of the box, please forgive me for that.
I really want to hearten you up in these difficult times and believe me, it bucks me up to write it … because just like everybody else, I have moments of weakness.
Today, the world is facing the coronavirus crisis, a pandemic that has changed life for millions of people. In times like these, HOPE can be a powerful source of reassurance. Many are locked at home, others are working to help and prevent the virus, but all need the reassurance and the hope that “we shall overcome this.”
Hope keeps us going.
Hope is a renewable option...
If you run out of it at the end of the day, you get to start over in the morning.
Therefore, this video titled 'Quarantine through Art'.
Let's go for the last sentence all together.
'Don't count the days, make the days counting to defeat the virus'
Though times NEVER last.
Don't ever stop hoping!
Remember that your 'photographic' Art also can help to cherish your hope for better times and to share it through your images!

 | Fabiola Amidei PRO Thank you dear Yvette for your great and important message... at this moment it is the hope that gives us the strength to move forward. Just think that in the past without all the knowledge and possibilities that we have, in 1600 with the plague and at the beginning of the last century with the Spanish, the epidemics were defeated... and for us it will be the same... we must only have a lot of patience and prudence, but we will get out...
