Synopsis

So, you’re stuck at home during the Covid 19 pandemic, right?

Well, so is your neighbor and as we discussed in a previous JumpStart, Chaucer was right when he said, “Familiarity breeds contempt.”

(If you want to know why familiarity breeds contempt, check out my JumpStart titled “Respect”)

While some neighbors are arranging virtual happier hours while socially distanced by their driveways, others find themselves beginning to get on one another’s nerves as the sights, sounds, and even smells of being at home 24/7 side-by-side with others causes mounting tensions.

In today’s JumpStart, I tell you the funny story about how even the English word “neighbor” has its origins in an insult to the person living next door so feeling stressed by the people next door has always been a thing.

Can we live side-by-side with peace in our minds and love in our hearts?

Yes, and in today’s JumpStart, I tell you how.
