The COVID-19 virus disrupts life, particularly our relationships with those we love. But, relationships are flexible and adapt to circumstance. Due to the stress the virus puts on her non-profit organization, my mom must leave earlier for work and cannot see my dad in the morning. So, in addition to leaving notes for my brothers and I, she leaves a few for him. Most of these notes offer him encouragement, as working remotely is a stressful change for most people. Next to her note, she leaves a coffee filter filled with coffee grinds, so he can make his cup of morning joe. Although my mom cannot do these things in person anymore, she still lets my dad know shes there for him.

We went out for ice cream one night because it was the only thing left to do. I guess somebody sick was there too because they closed a week later.

In these trying times, I believe that my photo helps to tell a story of strength, family, unity, and unwavering faith.
We’re both “essential” workers, however, family comes first and one of us has opted to stay home to homeschool our two sons. We are very appreciative of this extra, uninterrupted family time.
Spending more time together, we’re getting to know each other all over again.

Many of my favorite musicians kept us entertained by putting on FB live concerts. To repay the kindness we would tip them via Venmo or PayPal. This is one of the things that kept me sane and gave me a relief from the boredom and loneliness as I could comment to friends live during the show. It was really awesome!

Confined to their homes, residents of Greater Boston have been seeking solace in their own space by gardening more than ever. The town of Brookline began to pick up yard waste weeks earlier than it usually does as a result of popular demand, garden centers across the city are now delivering supplies and plants to customers, and at Mahoney's a popular garden center in the Boston subrub of Winchester, the line to pick up supplies was hundreds of feet long. Yet the space still felt empty, as pickups were carefully scheduled and masked customers observed physical distancing.

This is a photo of my little sister and I embarking on a 'journey' to the grocery store. Before this strange time, running an errand was something I never gave any thought. It oddly feels like so long ago: I would just grab my car keys and head out the door. Now, I need to take multiple precautionary steps before I go in public. It is still near impossible to wrap my head around the fact that the steps one needs to take (finding something to cover your face, having gloves ready or at least having hand sanitizer accessible) could literally be a matter of life and death. Not to mention, one needs to wipe down all the items that are purchased and brought back home. Now that I calculate my every move, like limiting what I touch, I realize more and more how much I previously took the little things for granted. I miss being around my friends, playing board games and sharing pizza. These are lonely times, and I could only imagine what it is like for those who live alone. I am so lucky to have my family so I don't go totally insane. This time has brought opportunities for us to have long talks that we would not normally have. This stagnant time has allowed us to discuss topics we would not otherwise dive into: topics of faith, philosophy, community, and what it means to be human. #REL101

My mom has been gardening as a hobby for as long as I could remember. Since we're in quarantine together, I have been helping her with her gardening recently. It's been a good way to keep busy and not feel like we're locked in all day. The image attached is a sunflower that recently bloomed.

This is the road to a family lake near Loris, South Carolina. Built over 60 years ago the road is very worn down and the brush has grown up all around it, but it is still there. I went out there this past week just to clear my head after this past week. During, the Covid-19 season that we are stuck in I have found it necessary to get out and away to a place that you can breathe at. No news, Facebook, or Instagram just you and nature. Trust me it is a good way to keep sane.

Danielle Gonzalez celebrated Easter with her family through a Zoom call. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, she was unable to see her family for this holiday. Even though they couldn't be there physically, they still saw each other virtually and that was enough. The Zoom call was full of laughter and love!

This is a picture of me at work at the Rotllies Pizza and Pasta. I work mostly as a pizza cook and sometimes I dabble at working as a line cook. We have taken many extra precautions at work to help stop the spread. Everyone has a mask and gloves on. If you have never worked an oven with a facemask on let me tell you it is hot. We are working hard to keep the doors open and the support from our local community has been amazing. While we have been fortunate other businesses have fared far worse. There has been many businesses that cannot keep the doors open. Others have tried to open back up with the help of the government loans. These are strange times and we got to stick together.

Throughout my whole life I have never seen people so scared and/or lost like I did during this pandemic. Hearing on the news that the COVID-19 pandemic was sweeping across the country and that we were encouraged to stock up on essential supplies I decided to head to the nearest Walmart and get the things I would need for daily life to continue. As I walk into the grocery store, I could immediately feel the panic that was upon every individual that was in the building. Shopping carts full to the max as well as almost everybody having on mask and/or gloves. Shelves were almost completely empty with nothing really left for the workers to stock them back up with. People fighting over items that we considered very small and unimportant just a few days ago. I was completely shocked at just how real this invisible virus had become to everybody,and what people were willing to do to make sure that they were able to survive. A day I will always remember as the Great Grocery Store Run. #REL101

Every day, I cook (kitchen not pictured but in the same room), work out, study, relax, and work from home all in the same room. This goes to show that even though the world is changing in huge ways during this time, every day actions such as going to the gym have had to transition into the home. Small changes like this show how we have had to adapt routines that we wouldn't normally give a second thought to.

I titled the image “A New Normal” as the Corona virus pandemic has forced us into a a different way of life. It used be where if we went out of the house to go to the store all you usually needed was your car keys and wallet or purse but now it is much more than that today. Today, because of the corona virus , there much more that you need to help protect yourself from the corona virus before going out. The everyday carrying of items such as latex gloves, face masks and hand sanitizer have become an everyday necessity for some because of corona virus and have become the new normal.

Every time the garbage truck comes, my son, Carter, 5, rushes to watch the action from the living room window. He comments on the bin order, and asks questions about how the truck’s “arms” work and where the garbage is going. It reminds me of when I was a kid, and how during hockey intermissions, with no action on the ice, my dad would entertain me by having us each pick a zambonie and see whose would win the “race” to clean the ice first.

This image was taken by me when I came home from University for Spring Break. At the time, the Covid 19 virus was present but it hadn't forced people into lockdown yet. I have always loved photographing things but the ocean has always been a place of true solitude. When I first saw the picture, I did not think that it would be the last time I saw the ocean for some time. I was unaware and did not appreciate how truly beautiful the picture was. I want this image to serve as a reminder to all that in these difficult times we must appreciate everything in our lives. Whether it be loved ones, a hobby, a food, or even the simplest things like waking up in the morning and being able to experience the sensations and feelings that we feel because we never really know when things may come to end and we want every last time to be a proper farewell if needed. #REL101
