tired of the virus

it seems like we are somewhat adjusting 2 viral procedures. Still lots of things are going to have to get back to normal. for instance our whole medical system is sort of on emergency standby for the virus stuff. so it's somewhat disruptive if you happen to have some other kind of illness. you'll still get taken care of but everyone is sort of standing around wondering if they're going to get hit with a big virus in flux. restaurants are obviously taking a huge hit. it's going to be tough to go into a sit-down restaurant with a mask on. so there's issues like that. most other store experiences though could sort of function in steady-state mode like this. sort of just staying away from other people for the most part and wearing a mask. even fast food places could kind of function that way as long as you just sat far enough away from other people in the restaurant. of course the playground is not going to work unless you just accept kids are going to sneeze and cough all over each other like they normally do. it's just getting old.

we could try the approach where, on a global scale, we read the Bible and repent of all the stuff we're doing wrong. but it is obvious at this point that we're not going to do anything remotely like that. first of all if you look at the video of Boris Johnson did after he got out of the hospital there was no mention of any sort of religious involvement at all other than to say Happy Easter. there was no sense of trying to make God happy or sad or angry or glad or anything. it was just all about how we were attacked by an enemy that we didn't completely understand. the idea that we were attacked because of our sin and the idea of looking at something like Matthew 13 10 through 18 was pretty much off the plate. the idea that we would repent and be healed simply hasn't really been addressed by anyone. it's just this physical scientific thing and we need to learn how to find a cure for viruses in general and then go on sinning however we want to somehow thinking that we're making God happy.

there is one sign in a person's front yard saying that we need to turn to Jesus for healing. maybe the news has addressed the idea, haven't heard it though.

it seems like people are actually doing the things that doctors and science have been saying we should do since the 1960s. wash our hands, don't cough on people, cover your cough or sneeze. you don't see anyone sneezing or coughing in public these days. it seems like people know if you have a little cough everyone's going to think oh my God they've got the virus. when I was younger I was very healthy. my attitude was, the flu, pneumonia and colds are for other people. I'm very healthy so I don't need to wash my hands very often I don't sneeze or cough anyway so it doesn't really apply to me. so was easy just to ignore the seasonal warnings, ignore getting a flu shot, just ignore all that stuff and go on with life. now I'm old, worn out, tired and run down, so it seems like washing my hands every once in awhile isn't such a tough concession to make to be a little bit healthier.
