Is it ok, to not have an opinion? I've seen alot of very strong opinions out there these days, about everything. Personally I can see both sides of the COVID opinions. What I do know is, it's not going away. Even with a vaccine, we will still see it. They have vaccines for whooping cough, my children have all had them and are up to date, that didn't stop my daughter from getting it, but it was a milder version.
I feel bad for anyone that gets COVID, and they are shunned from the world. That's got to be hard on the heart. They feel shame and blame. That's not right. It's not their fault. We don't make people that have influenza feel that way. I think if we could get rid of social media and the news in general, life would be better. Calmer, less anxiety. I'm aware there is good to all of it too, however, maybe I'm just searching for simpler times.
Do mask work? I don't know. I'm sure they help some things, but at the same time they are causing harm too. It's trying to find the balance. If someone wants to wear a mask, I want them too. If someone feels better with me having a mask on, I will definitely do that. If someone can't wear a mask, or doesn't want to. I respect that as well. If someone has health concerns, lets keep them safe, in whatever way they see fit. As loving individuals we can adapt to help each other.
I've seen many people lately with COVID. It's not something anyone wants. I just think at some point they need to feel loved, cared for and human. Not shamed for an illness they didn't ask for. We can love each other calmly, caringly and patiently and still be safe.
God called us all to love and care for one another. I pray the people I am in contact with can feel that love and know I care. And I pray each of you take the opportunity to care for each other.
We don't always wear masks, but I must say, we did wear them before they were cool :)
