1. I’ve been social distancing EXCEPT for Passover tonight. I had contact tonight with couple of friends (3) that I’m close with and I trust. I feel like there is an immense pressure to keep distance to everyone and I swear I’m doing it every time I go out I wear gloves and mask.
2. I swear I’m taking this as seriously as possible. I’ve been social distancing EXCEPT for Passover. I had contact tonight with couple of friends (3) that I’m close with and I trust. I feel like there is an immense pressure to keep distance to everyone. No exceptions.
3. I swear I’m doing it every time I go out I wear masks and gloves. But tonight we felt like inviting three friends who were taking that risk as well. So we could be together for Passover and celebrate the holiday together instead if over zoom.
4. I know it’s not exactly what we should be doing and I know that I’m breaking a social and legal contract by doing so. But has anyone else made ‘exceptions’ to the rule? If so why? I’m curious why as humans we pretend to be perfect but we’re really not.
5. We’re extremely flawed even when we we try to do our best. We justify our actions with reasons we think make logical sense to ourselves. Why do we feel this need to appear as if we are conforming to legal and social norms when in fact very very few of us are?
We are all breaking the law or governmental ‘suggestions ‘ in some way or another. Some of us are not privileged enough to follow what the government and CDC are suggesting. How should we feel then? Ashamed that we cannot afford to follow the “laws” dictated down to us?
6. Ashamed that we cannot work “remotely”? Ashamed that we are not able to resist the temptations perfectly? Isn’t this just another form of online shaming that perpetuates online bullying?
7. Anyway all I ask is that we care about and love each other as if we actually understood what the other person was going through and why they feel the pain they do. All I ask is that we each do the best we can and accept that some things are out of our control. #
8. And that we are all loved in some shape or form whether we believe it or not and that it’s okay to not have answers or be imperfect for once. This is coming from someone who has a type 1 enneagram as a recovering perfectionist who is trying to celebrate her mistakes 
9. And in celebration of one my mistakes I realized I didn’t number one of the tweets in this thread correctly
