I tried to warn them about the vax. They are all getting sick in the middle of summer now. Anyone ever get sick in the summer?
But they regress in pointing at me, making me feel like the crazy guy. Cognitive dissonance is so strong. I hate them but I don't think that is right. Any advice would be appreciated.
Nobody makes us feel anything without us giving them that power. You are not them--you've demonstrated the ability to think rationally and not be ruled by your emotions. Examine that emotion of feeling "like the crazy guy". Trace it to it's root and then pull it out. It is a weed.
Nobody makes you feel anything. You choose how you feel about something.
I have two children I birthed who won't speak to me because I voted for President Trump in 2020. I'm sure my daughter is losing her mind over this Roe v. Wade overturn. And a lot of her anger is probably felt towards me at the moment. But here's what I would say to that if I were confronted with that anger: she can just scratch her mad place (to quote my esteemed grandmother who passed in 2006 and grew up in Alabama). Her anger at me means nothing when the stakes are what they are. I will continue to pray for her well being and trust that God/Universe/Source has a plan for us in this.
Blessings to you, fren. Stand up straight knowing you are right here and will be vindicated. The timing of that vindication may not be as quick as any of us would like, but it WILL come. In this life or the next. I'm willing to love these idiots until they wake up and comfort them when they do wake up and see what they were being used for.
Hang in there. God is with you.
