Have some compassion for yourself and others during the Coronavirus Era

 The First year I was all macho and thought I needed to be strong for my wife and children. 

But, then, I realized I'm 72 years old with some health problems and had to have a pacemaker installed last June and had to face the fact that trying to macho my way through all this might be fatal to me. And I'm no good dead to my family. It sort of defeats the whole purpose of being strong for my family if I'm dead from macho.

So, I had to face myself about a month ago and realize that all I can really do is to take all this one moment one day at a time. Trying to do anything else could be fatal. There is a lesson here somewhere for everyone if you look for it by the way.

The point is: We don't know enough about what we are dealing with really here and might not for years to come. 

Sure, we have a vaccine that ONLY covers really the version we had last january or February of 2020. So, what good is it against all the variants here or coming?

Unknown is the best answer. So, for people who think we have seen the worst of all this maybe you need to check what we don't know because we know a lot less than you think about what we are presently facing as human beings and a human civilization here on earth.

So, have some compassion for yourselves and others because really we have no idea if this thing ever ends at this point short of human extinction right now. 

One day one moment at a time is all any of us have for the time being. 

By God's Grace
