Are We Cattle?

      Randy celebrated a milestone birthday recently.  People showed up for his party.  There were live music and dancing.  Good food.  Fun was had by all.  It was a day where everyone could forget their troubles.  Fast-forward to today.  Vaccines for the coronavirus are once again in the news.  

     The rush to create a vaccine for a virus that can't be proven is something to be worried about.  My concern is the vaccine is more dangerous than the supposed virus.  Thank goodness vaccines are optional and should stay optional.  People should also have the option of using their immune systems.  Preservatives are one thing our immune system doesn't have.  The government will also find a reason to make people stay home.  

     In the US, some states are on lockdown again.  Especially on the East Coast, where it is cold.  It's by design.   The government knows that people do not like going outside when it is cold.  By the time it warms up, people will use to being at home all the time. If this keeps up, the world will have agoraphobia.  The outdoors must be good for us, or why would restaurants be allowed to have outdoor dining? Why are gyms allowed to have outdoor equipment?  People want to travel, and travel is good for people.  

     I am seeing people traveling again on a small scale.  On Facebook, I read about people traveling within their own country.  Road trips are good for the soul.  May travel continues to expand beyond the borders. We need human contact.  Being solitary for long periods of time is not healthy.  Not good for our mental health or our immune systems.   Too much time at home is not safe at home.
