What is Going On

The 'Rona Stitch

Are we still quarantining or, did we forget that our health was at risk? All that we see now is people in groups partying with no masks, face shields, or a bandana insight. What the hell are we doing?

Last year was horrific for everyone. We were stuck inside, could not see our friends, lost our jobs, and many lost family members. BUT it is not over yet, we haven't even hit a curve. Even before we ever had a vaccine people we still out partying and having get-togethers. Especially in areas where the rates have been high. No one is immune to this but we are acting as the whole thing has just disappeared.

Now, I am not saying the thing because we know what the thing is. We All Know What It IS!!

The rates are back up really up. Have you seen Florida and Atlanta? They have gone crazy, literally. Yes, I know it is getting hot and it's spring break and we are really for happy times again. But y’all we have not won the war and we lost every battle. When are we going to get smart about this? Are we ever going to get smart about this?

Did we just stop caring about other people and their health, whether they are young or old? This pandemic is no longer new to us, this is something that we have been going through for the past year. So, why is it still a fight to get someone to wear a mask or stand at least six feet behind you? If I am going to be completely honest people should have been standing behind each other. But hey, that is just a thought I have.

Are we going to have this go into a third year because we don't want to get it right? I want to travel and go frolicking outside again. If you are not going to get the 2 shot monster at least wear your mask and respect the next person. Can we also say that spitting on someone should be treated as a federal offense like they need to go far far away?

How will our world work or look like once this is all done and this will be a distant memory? Are still going to wear a mask or are we going to wear one when we are sick and not feeling well? Are we going to keep dividers up or keep the spacing distances? Is school ever going to look normal again for any age group? How are we going to handle ourselves when we have to do this again? It looks like everything will be different and nothing for anyone will look the same for anybody.

We have already begun to act like this virus has never happened and like biggie once said, it was all a dream. But it is not, we have to remember that. This is a real and frightening thing. No one seems to truly get it.

Still with them masks! People are still complaining about it and storming in and out of stores because of it. I mean, there are delivery services now. There are a million and one ways to get what you want and need. But NOPE!! We just have to get it together with some people. Even with the two major shots, this monster can still spike back up again and we are not prepared for it.

I guess this is the end of this rant. I do not understand how we handled the situation. Hopefully, we can be able to party soon enough.
