I had an interaction with a friend last night. Afterward, I went into my room thinking…am I wrong for choosing not to live in fear?
For choosing not to watch the news every day? Am I wrong because I can’t answer you when you ask me how many people lost their lives to the virus?
I will not be made to feel guilty about not wanting to sit and talk about the coronavirus or anything else that drains me.
I will not be made to feel guilty for hating facemasks. I will not be made to feel guilty for being optimistic.
I will not be made to feel guilty for choosing to believe in my own opinions. I will not be made to feel guilty for choosing not to believe everything I’m told.
Yes, the pandemic is bad and it sucks.
But I didn’t ask for this? I didn’t cause this.
I am the one that is mad because it’s disrupting my life and my plans.
I will not be made to feel guilty for choosing not to live in fear!
