No matter how you look at everything going on in our world today it will all work out exactly how it is going to without any input from you and I. Fact is that our county is going through its ups and downs. There were times were we did not know what to do next and it still worked out in the end.
Today we have to remember that this right now is not as bad as so had it just a few generations before us.
Just a reminder...
If you were born in 1900
At 14, WW 1 starts and does not end tell you're 18.. Over 22 million died
The year you turn 18 Spanish flu hits killing over 50 million. You watch as the word suffers until you are 20.
Then you get married and start a factor job and begin investing for your retirement… but at 29 the stock exchange collapses and you're left unemployed in hunger.
Luck you were born in America and not in Germany because at 33 the Nazis come to power. At 39 WWII begins and does not end tell your 45 years old.. Over 60 million died.
At 52, the Korean War begins and lasts for 3 years.
Another 5 million die.
But wait there is more.
At 64 the Vietnam War begins and does not end tell you would be 75. Another 1.3 million people died.
So in just 75 years of life you would have seen the would lose almost 150 million people just from war or a pandemic.
I count myself luck to live in this time where technology has help make a vaccine in less than a year, where that vaccine is on its way to states in the millions of doses as I type this.
Where companies work together for the greater good.\(Pfizer/BioNTech, Both have a vaccine but have shared their work with other vaccine creators so that everyone can work together to get a vaccine out there)
Where we can vent our frustrations on a forum like this about our day to day issues with this crappy conditions...pun intended.
Where we can seek out the best care advice from others that are going through it with us.
We will get through this. As generations before us are a testament to, It's all going to be okay.

And for us in Florida air conditioning! In fact it was invented in Florida by a doctor (Dr. John Gorrie) who used it to treat a patient with either typhoid or malaria, up in Apalachicola. And cars with air conditioning are also pretty cool! (All right, that's enough! Better quit while I'm ahead!!!)
