Thoughtful Thursday #301 – Taking Advantage

Standard

I have some concerns about how stores and others are treating the public since Coved 19 showed up.

  1. Grocery stores have no sales, they are selling all items at full price.
  2. Companies are providing the necessities, it is people who are hoarding.
  3. Commercials on TV and politicians saying how we are all in this together and trying to fan our egos. We are not all in this together when you get sick.
  4. Shaming the public to wear masks etc. I am not against wearing masks but i do resent being shamed for not wearing one.

I am recovering from Covid and don’t appreciate the sanctimonious platitudes that are said with smiles with knives in your back taking your money, lieing, and shaming.

Thoughtful Thursday #300 – Unexpected Bad News

Standard

My Facebook friend and sweet spiritual brother who I have known for many years suddenly passed away. At this moment there is no other information.

I am shocked and in disbelief, he is a friend who I talk to regularly however I didn’t realize how much he meant to me until suddenly losing him.

Unexpected bad news is shocking and numbing, I am sliding between both. At times like this there is no way to focus and be proactive on any level.

I will just sit with this sadness for as long as it takes until I feel better.
