The comments are great..there is a such a sigh of relief for those that made the right decision. We all know people on both sides of this issue and it really permeates every aspect of our society...especially dating and marriage relationships...having children. We really are entering totally new territory...things are not as easy to navigate anymore...there are so many more questions that need to be asked and answered before we embark on what used to be fairly easy, mundane decisions, such as surgery, going to hospitals, who to date or marry, when to have kids, schooling, family...and the list goes on. We are in a different time and place.

Those that weathered the covid trial as least have that experience to build on...to know what it means to go against the flow...to question everything and to think and evaluate independent of outside influence and coercion. Yes, a whole segment of the population is waking up and realizing they have just lived through their worst nightmare and it isn't over yet. I feel for my extended family and friends...it can't be easy...when you love people you are able to empathize and personally I find no joy in their plight. But I did not come across the worst of the people that tried to force all this on us...it was just family and friends that made a wrong decision and believed the wrong people. God bless us every one...right or wrong...
