I live in a state that does not have a required mask mandate. However, there are still a few stores that have their signs up saying you must wear a mask to enter, but I never do.

Yesterday while walking down an aisle I saw dad with three young children. The youngest was probably around three and they were all wearing masks and it made me so sad to think how messed up those kids were going to be.

Normally I’m the only person in one of those stores without a mask, but I was greatly encouraged yesterday when I saw 3 others that were not wearing one. I can only imagine what they were thinking as we looked at each other and smiled.
