Dear Sleepy
I read your posts intently, because I feel a kindred spirit with you and what you're expressing also.
It'd be lovely if everyone "felt safe" to express their POVs here.
I know that I don't need to tell anyone anything about my views on these experimental vaccination roll outs, the fact that so many ppl in ICU are vaccinated, that ppl think they can't transfer the virus just because of jabs blah blah blah.... or any reactions I have to politicians et al. My views are WAY stronger than that lol.
I avoid the News like the plague lol! It's a threat to my MH.
I have 3 trusted sources for my Health Orders / Restrictions update:
~ my Govt Dept emails updating us on constant changes
~ my friend because we walk together on Sundays - she's a Nurse and is all over it
~ my eldest d - she's keeping up to date with increasing restrictions on us and letting me know.
That's enough right there!
I EXPECT to be on very opposite sides of the fence with all my friends on perhaps every possible viewpoint, IDK.
The beautiful thing between us though, is RESPECT.
Not one of my dear friends, nor I, have 'lost our split' at each other for the entire 18 months over Covid stuff.
It's because we are tempering our emotions (whilst others are losing grip on theirs - understandably so), RESPECT and love each other.
We VALUE each other and intend to be friends during this whole new pandemic. It ain't going away.
It'd be nice if a person had one other person who understood them.
I understand you Sleepy & Ezzi.
I hear you and completely respect every word you're saying.
Others may prefer a resounding VOTE by all for their viewpoints, IDK.
I think that could be what some ppl are seeking.
Btw we're following ALL Public Health Orders & extreme restrictions on just about everything in our continuing lock down within my household - what we CAN manage and control. Not outside.
I agree Sleepy. Whether I agree or disagree with anything, it is how it is right now.
It's "how we do this" that matters most to me!!
Coming at ppl and carrying on at them doesn't resonate with me either.
Thankyou for expressing yourself. I admire your courage and persistence.
I'm just "talk to the hand" lol.
Boundaries.
Love always EM
