#tough life
The past few years have changed how everyone looks at life, what they value. It made everyone take a step back, re-evaluate their jobs, their marriage, friendships, political views. All thanks to Covid. Working from home, small business start ups, people losing jobs, people getting sick, do masks work, vaccination are all topics of conversations. People are missing time, valuable time with loved ones due to quarantine or fear of getting sick. No one trusts anyone anymore, if you sneeze in public- forget it you will get looks of death. Healthcare workers are overworked, teachers are attempting to teach remotely and the ones that do in person kids have to be 6 feet apart. Human interaction is non existent, no hugs, handshakes. I am truly scared of what’s to come. I’m scared of this becoming the new normal. I’m scared of my kids having friends and not even knowing what they look like without a mask on. I’m scared that kids are missing out on a regular childhood filled with sleepovers, birthday parties, field trips. On top of all that the country is so divided, prices are all time high on just about anything. Vaccinated people are hating on the ones that are not, even though both groups can still not only get covid but also pass on to others. I’m not going to say my thoughts on it and I’m actually not sure where I stand. The only thing I do believe that no government should force you to get the vaccine. I am fully vaccinated with a booster - do I feel immune, no. Do I look at people that stand against it with judgement, still no. It’s a personal choice. 2021 has been exhausting, challenging and I’m glad it’s almost over. Did you know- Sunflowers stand tall and face the sun, on gloomy days they turn to each other as if to keep company. I heard that from a girl that sat next to me on a spirit flight and it stuck with me. That’s how I look at covid, we need that people interaction to keep going on cloudy days. So let’s turn to each other instead of turning away and stand tall. 12/28/21
I hate to break it to you, but life is tough.
It might start off great and end badly or it might start of terrible and end greatly. The truth is that life really sucks. But, that’s because of us! We can’t sit around all day and feel bad for ourselves when there is a world around us waiting for us to come at least the tiniest bit toward it. The world is yours and ours and we are what make it what it is.
Life doesn’t have to be tough. It is what you make it.
Stay Strong. It’s unbelievable what some people have done just by smiling and keeping their head high above all those lazy dogs who try to destroy us for their own personal gain. I’ve got news for you, honey. They only destroy when they smell weakness, so be strong.
