Embracing Life Amid Uncertainties
This post was shared by my friend and so much of it speaks to my thoughts.
Yes, I’m fully vaccinated, with the additional booster, and, no, I don’t know exactly what’s in it and neither do you - neither this vaccine, the ones I had as a child, nor in the Big Mac, or hot dogs, or other treatments…whether it’s for cancer, AIDS, the one for polyarthritis, or vaccines for infants or children.
I also don’t know what’s in Ibuprofen, Paracetamol, or other meds, it just cures my headaches & my pains.
I don’t know what’s in the ink for tattoos, vaping, Botox and fillers, or every ingredient in my soap or shampoo or even deodorants. I don’t know the long term effect of mobile phone use or whether or not that restaurant I just ate at REALLY used clean foods and washed their hands.
In short … There’s a lot of things I don’t know and never will… I just know one thing: life is short, very short, and I still want to do something other than just going to work every day or staying locked in my home. I still want to travel and hug people without fear and find a little feeling of life “before”. As a child and as an adult I’ve been vaccinated for mumps, measles, polio, chickenpox, and quite a few others; my parents and I trusted the science and never had to suffer through or transmit any of the said diseases and, I’m vaccinated, not to please the government but: * To not die from Covid-19. * To NOT clutter a hospital bed if I get sick. * To hug my loved ones * To Not have to do PCR or antigenic tests to go to a restaurant, go on holidays and many more things to come … * To live my life. * To see and hug my family and friends * For Covid-19 to be an old memory. * To protect us.
