We live in a strange time and place. In the time of the coronavirus and in the time when many in this country do not believe that democracy can be achieved, and that we might want to look to someone who has all the answers. No one has all the answers.
Something you can control is working out. Today is an easy day. Savor it. Smell the air. Take in the scenery. Stay safe.
