Đổ bể kế hoạch vì Covid-19

sắp đến kỳ nghỉ lễ rồi, vẫn chưa có kế hoạch thăm gia đình hay tổ chức tiệc,

việc gì cũng ngại, sợ "vỡ kế hoạch" vì dịch bệnh,

-> nên lập kế hoạch có tính đến tình huống dự phòng, ví dụ tiệc ngoài trời, nếu trời xấu hoặc mọi người ko khỏe thì có thể tặng đồ ăn cho những 'người khốn khó'; như vậy dù ko có bữa tiệc mong muốn cho năm nay, thì nói chung mọi người vẫn thấy ok vì kế hoạch thay đổi hơn là đối phó với bất định tương lai,

Dear Dan,

The holidays are right around the corner, but I’ve been hesitating to make plans to visit family or host a party. The changing Covid-19 situation means that any plan I make is likely to change or fall through, and I could end up really disappointed. Am I right that it’s better to wait and see what happens closer to Thanksgiving?

It’s perfectly understandable that you’re wary about making plans. Many of the things we looked forward to in 2020 were disrupted by the pandemic, leaving us with a long list of disappointments. Nevertheless, making plans is important: It gives us something to look forward to, which is useful and important in itself. Instead of doing nothing, then, why don’t you make plans with built-in contingencies.

For example, you could invite a small group of guests for an outdoor potluck on Thanksgiving, and say that if the weather is too cold or people are unwell, you’ll arrange a way to donate the food to the needy. We might end up not having the holiday we hoped for this year, but in general people can bounce back from a change in plans much more easily than we can deal with uncertainty about the future.
