Greetings Divine Soul,

How are you?

I don't watch the news. However, I am aware the Government restrictions have been lifted. I am observing retail outlets, pubs, restaurants and other familiar aspects of 'normal' life beginning to reopen.

This should be positive news. Yet I am feeling cautious about the motives behind these announcements. If you've started to socialise again in pubs and restaurants. Meet ups with your family or friends now require you to handover your personal data. How do you feel about being asked to leave contact details with strangers in the hospitality industry?

What about other aspects of life? How easy is it for you to access every day services without being controlled and monitored? In many cities Council managed gyms and other sporting activities such as swimming are only accessible via pre-booking arrangements.

I am personally finding this frustrating and difficult to make meaningful plans. The Government have created a pathway into our lives on so many levels. This doesn't sit right with me, as divine living soul. How about you?
