A Thought for the New Year!
"And the people refused to close their Businesses, Instead they opened them up fully! People went out and had coffee, ate, and listened to live music, shopped travelled and lived normally.
And the people tore down the signs and took up the pavement markings and they took off their masks and smiled, and laughed, they refused to be tested and they refused to be tracked. They met with their friends and their family members. Kids Played. Everyone carried on as if it had never happened. Theatres opened, places of worship opened, Everyone went out and lived!
And the police came in, and they threatened closures and gave fines, but the people never moved, they carried on without violence or anger. They refused to be shut in their homes and they turned off their TV’s and the media and refused to listen. And the people began to understand that every year people die. People get sick and people recover. Those that feel vulnerable choose to stay in until they felt stronger. This is a fact of life.
The government sent in the army, but still the people refused to close down society. They carried on living. The whole country were one, they ignored the government.
The government gave up, they realized the power of the people was too great and society returned to normal."
