Quarantine and Anxiety - Protesters
Hello everyone,
I hope that this post finds you all healthy and safe from Covid-19. If you are sick or know someone who is, please know that we are praying for you all. To all healthcare workers and all those that are helping us to get food and any other supplies for our families, know that you are awesome and that you are being prayed for.
I wanted to address a very upsetting issue that I came across last week.... protesters. I am not referring to people protesting about a vaccine being made or about some charity that is not getting the funds to help others. I am wanting to write about those protesters that are wanting to go against the stay-at-home orders from their local governments.
Let me first say that I am so over this stay-at-home thing, but it is what is necessary in order to prevent the spread of this virus. I miss driving and running errands. I miss traveling and meeting up with friends. I miss Starbucks...I miss having my coffee there while tackling some writing and study projects. I miss being able to just go out on a date with my husband. I miss my family. I am so sad about the fact that that I may not see them until next year... and so, yes, I get it that people want this to be over!!!
However, these guidelines and restrictions have been put in place for one specific reason: PREVENT THE SPREAD OF COVID-19!!! This is not about the government wanting to control us. This is not about the government wanting small businesses to fail. This is not about our local governor becoming the hero of Covid-19...
If you want to get sick...go ahead!!! But remember that you are being selfish and that you are putting others in danger!! How will you live with yourself if you get sick and in the process, you kill your spouse, children, friend, neighbor??? Will it be worth it to not comply with a guideline that could save your life??? Don't be stupid and just STAY HOME!!
This will end, because a vaccine will come out. This will end because it has happened in the past and after a while, it ended. This will end!!!
I can't repeat it enough - these stay-at-home orders are there to protect you, your families and our world from this virus that has already taken so many people. Countless spouses, children, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends, neighbors have died. So, please, don't make this about yourself. Make this about you wanting our world to be safe again. The more we stop the spread, the quicker we will go back to a somewhat more normal life.
I wish you all well. Keep safe and healthy and STOP the spread of COVID-19!
