WHAT MADE YOU START THIS
CHALLENGE ON SOCIAL MEDIA?
>> WELL, OBVIOUSLY WHAT I HAVE
BEEN SAYING FOR A WHILE IS I
THINK PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MISSING
THE CONNECTIVITY.
THE CONNECTIVITY. THIS VIRUS HAS REALLY MADE IT
MORE DIFFICULT TO NEVER.
WE ARE GLOBALLY, AND IN OUR
NEIGHBORHOODS TRYING TO REACH
OUT.
OUT.
OUT. IT
OUT. IT IS A POSITIVE THING TO GET
THIS MESSAGE OUT ABOUT SOCIAL
DISTANCING AND STAYING HOME AND
TRYING OUR BEST TO KEEP PEOPLE
SAFE.
SAFE.
SAFE. I
SAFE. I ALSO WANTED TO POINT OUT, OR
BRING AWARENESS THAT WE CAN
STAY HOME.
STAY HOME. IN THE FACE OF THIS EPIDEMIC,
WE CAN DO THIS AND PROTECT
MEDICAL RESPONDERS AND THE
HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS.
HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS. BUT, THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T
STAY HOME AND HAVE TO WORK.
FOR THOSE OF US WHO CAN, I JUST
WANTED TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT
WHAT WE CAN DO IN TERMS OF
THAT.
THAT.
THAT. >>
THAT. >> AND YOU HAVE HAD GREAT
RESPONSE FROM SOME CELEBRITIES.
I SAW JOHN ELTON, DAVID
BECKHAM, DEMI LOVATO ALL
POSTED.
POSTED.
POSTED. ARE YOU ENCOURAGED WHEN YOU SEE
OTHERS POST, AND THE FLOOD OF
EVERYONE ELSE WHO IS POSTING?
>> I AM.
>> I AM.
>> I AM. I AM THRILLED WITH THOSE GREAT
ENTERTAINERS WHO ARE
DEMONSTRATING THE ACTIVISM, SO
IT IS FANTASTIC.
I AM ALSO REALLY TOUCHED JUST
BECAUSE OF REGULAR INDIVIDUAL
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE.
PEOPLE. WE HAVE THIS HASHTAG, I STAY
HOME FORM AND BECAUSE OF THAT
HASHTAG THERE HAVE BEEN SOME
GREAT THINGS PEOPLE HAVE BEEN
PUT UP.
PUT UP.
PUT UP. IT IS VERY TOUCHING AND I HAVE
BEEN MOVED BY IT.
ONCE AGAIN, IT IS GREAT.
>> AS YOU MENTIONED, WE ARE
ALWAYS CONNECTED IN SOME WAY.
AND THIS IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF
HOW WE ARE CONNECTED MORE THAN
EVER.
EVER.
EVER. >>
EVER. >> ABSOLUTELY.
>> ABSOLUTELY. THE THINGS WE DO ARE AFFECTING
EACH OTHER.
EACH OTHER. WHETHER WE KNOW IT OR NOT.
AND THAT IS SOMETHING WE NEED
TO UNDERSTAND.
TO UNDERSTAND. IT IS TO THE FOREFRONT NOW.
>> ANY IDEAS, WHERE PEOPLE ARE
STAYING HOME BESIDE USING THE
HASHTAG AND SENDING OUT WHO
THEY ARE STEMMING STAYING HOME
FOR, WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH
YOUR TIME?
YOUR TIME? IS IT RELAXING TO BE STAYING
HOME?
HOME?

US.

AROUND.

KEEP GOING.
KEEP GOING. >> WE MAYBE DO A PUZZLE.
I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE EVER
DONE A PUZZLE IN MY LIFE.
THAT WILL BE INTERESTING.
