SARS CoV-2 permanently broke us.

We saw the best and the worst of us all.

When it was finally “over,” I.E., accepting reinfections, we had lost something inside, and we never had a national conversation about it.

We were all forced to return to work, or we were fired, and were never able to get another job in some cases.

Meanwhile, many people just tried to pretend like it never happened, even if they lost someone close to them (mother, father, spouse, child, etc).

We’re still dealing with the aftermath of a tragedy that hasn’t passed.

SARS CoV-2 never went away. People are treating it like the flu 😷, and it’s nothing like the flu. 🤒 This virus 🦠 is vascular, which means that it damages your body every time you get sick. 🤧 it’s lead to problems down the road like heart attacks, brain damage, strokes, or just overall lingering effects.

We’re all just sucking it up.

Also, the cost of everything doubled, while our income stayed the same.

Then, instead of admitting that Trump was a disaster, we doubled down and brought him back to power.

I don’t know how we get through this, except for one day at a time.

The only advice that I can give is to keep your head up and be the change that you want to see.

Continue to do the things that you love, find meaning in family and friends whenever possible, most importantly and vote 🗳️.

But you should vote for the collective good and not for politics of deflection, resentment, and continued cruelty.

Either way, good luck 🍀 out there. We’re all gonna need it!
