Stay at home.
As much as possible.
When not possible, be mindful of personal proximity to others. Practice proper social distancing (Hate that term). Wash your hands. Often. All the time. Wash, soap, scrub, lather, rinse, repeat. Wear gloves. Wear face masks. Wash your hands again. Stay away from other people. Wash some more.
See?
Gloves...because I'm starting a new fashion trend. :)
This is a mind-numbing, challenging and stupid time in our lives, and in the annals of human history. It will pass. Nothing ever stays the same. Things will improve. Life will get better. Its no fun to write about this. Its not nice to think about. Its not happy. Its not sexy. But it is reality. Life or death reality. It's horrible to see, to witness, to be a part of. But the most important thing is to stay alive. Stay healthy. Maintain a healthy mind, body, spirit and attitude.
Boredom and isolation is hard, but its better than the alternative. They, the scientists and doctors will find a vaccine, a cure, or at least better treatments. As to the latter, they already have. I'm not even going into a rant about Trump and the GOP. There is no point. He is obviously not mentally nor emotionally stable. And even though I want to Bitch-Slap all jackass Trump supporters, I don't want them getting sick, or dying. Listen to the scientists and doctors for medical and scientific advice. Ignore 100% of what Trump and the feckless GOP politicians say. Its ignorance. Coupled with spinelessness. One way or another, this insanity will end.
Some people may be having an extremely hard time financially. Get unemployment. Get food stamps. Get in touch with the county, the city, see what government programs they might offer for assistance. Contact food banks, shelters, churches or other charitable organizations. There are resources out there. It might take persistence, time, energy, patience, and more persistence..but they do exist.
Some people have bizarre and rare medical conditions, even young people, where they basically have to stay at home, for months, for years, or in some cases, most of their lives. As hard as the last few months have been, its nothing in comparison to what some people are forced to endure. Look towards the future. Know that this will pass, or at least improve. It might get worse before it gets better, but it will get better. Try to stay optimistic, stay healthy and alive for a new day, for a new tomorrow, its worth the effort. I promise you, it will improve. :)

If the glove don't fit, you must...suuuck it! :)
What this virus has cost us is that we're going to have to reconsider our idea that individual rights take priority over the collective rights; if the right of a person to not wear a mask takes priority over the rights of people not to become infected.
ReplyDeletePeople are also confused about what and where their "rights" apply. They have the right to *not* wear a mask at home, or in their car etc. But a private business owner can require it, or tell them to leave. So, Costco, Arbys, a bar, a gym, whatever, is on private property and they set their own rules. "No Shoes-No Shirt-No Service" policy is the owners right...same as with a mask requirement.
