Love in the Time of COVID

I told Oscar he was not to take any vaccine for COVID. He said he would not. He then said something I absolutely admire, and is how I feel as well, ＂If COVID kills me, then I was not meant to be here.＂ If only the masses felt that way. Much more enlightened than crying out to the government for help. And this is a weak ＂pandemic.＂ If you want me to be afraid, I need to see piles of bodies burning on every block . . . And even the churches have no faith-all of them saying taking the vaccine is recommended for their flocks. I remember why I have not been to church in forty odd years. I suppose they want to keep their tax-exempt status, so they bow down to man, instead of to God. No surprise there. And I am reminded of ＂No man shall buy or sell without the mark.＂ Let’s see where this goes . . .
