Some took vac some bush others supplements
In a end what matters is that we fought
Unfortunately some couldn’t and we all
Know the answers to that
What’s in the dark will come to light
The truth will always prevail.
Plants your herbs and bush my garden is filled anyone is welcome to pick.
It seems to me, based on global evidence, that the covid-19 virus feeds, so to speak, very much on complacency, misinformation, unproven theories, passiveness, stubbornness, deviciveness, deceptivenes, false belief, arrogance, etc., that gives it opportunity to continue on it path of destruction.
We are responsible to each other to do the best we can to protect each well-being. Any failure to to fight in unison, will result in countless unnecessary lose of lives.
God help us in two particular ways: 1. He Help us when we unable to help ourselves. 2. He gave us knowledge, wisdom, supplies to use to help ourselves. He has, and is continuing to do His part. We are responsible to do our part. Go gave us feet, but He will not walk for us, food yes, but He will not eat for us, air yes, but he will not breathe for us, life yes, but He will not live fo us. In some cases we decide our life or death whether it be earlier or later. In those such cases, the decision of life or death rest with us.
Each person has been given the right from God to choose their own destiny. We must exercise that right. We need only to be sure that we choose our destiny wisely. We are first accountability to God, and second to our neighbors. Scripture ref: "Love your neighbors as you love yourself." That does not mean tha you should let you neighbors advantage you unjustly.
Understand this truth: No man live unto himself, and no man die unto himself. We are our neighbors keepers, members of the B.V.I community. We ought to do all that is necessary within our power to help protect our lives, and the lives of others. Aaaaaaaaaamen
