It seems that the
Covid-19 virus pandemic has made some much needed changes to this world. It is
a matter of opinion. During the stay at home policies and the social distancing
when we are away from home looking for necessities, we find a new social
behavior in our local travels. Of course, I can only speak for myself. Even if
this isolation period is better than incarceration, we should empathize with
those that are. Some people are there for a reason and some are not.
As I stand in lines at
the grocery store, hardware store or even at the drug store, I am reminded of
the people during the Great Depression who suffered as lot more without food,
money, clothing or housing. I am forever grateful for my blessings. Yet, I am
so frustrated with the lies and deceptions I hear from the politicians who
contrive their stories each day. I am sure they know that people are aware of
their schemes during these terrible times. People are dying and many of these
so-called leaders prefer that we intermingle, push the economy forward and
invest in certain pharmaceuticals, because there is money a lot of money to be
made in times of crises. We should take the time out to pray for those who
passed away and for all of the people on the front lines helping with law
enforcement, EMS, fire, sales clerks, stockers, gas station attendants, postal
carriers including UPS, FEDEX and Amazon and all the other people I didn’t
name.
Aside from that, we have
now ended the Easter season. Many of us celebrated it in the home with the
people we love and should be grateful for it. Many of us will also celebrate
the season alone without the people we care about. Then again, some do not want
to be with the people we are with, but have no other choice. Still, celebration
for the Resurrection is in order and God is worthy to be praised.
You
are in my prayers Dorothy and Harold
