Please wake up

This is what baffles me.

When did your freedom to not wear a mask overcome your desire to help save lives?

You’re not just saving another life- you are saving perhaps your own life.

How can you not be on the same page as me?

How can you be so selfish that you would rather make a point than worry about someone dying?

I hope it’s not your parent that loses their life next.

Or your child.

Or your partner, best friend, former kindergarten teacher or the ER doctor down the street.

Because that’s who is getting infected.

And you better wake up because not only the elderly are dying.

Not only the immunocompromised.

Wake the hell up and stop making this political.

Stop making this about your freedom and stop being so ignorant.

We are better than this.

This is not political.

Our kids miss school.

I miss your hugs.

Please wake up.
