No sweat here, bro, I don't doubt what you say. You've never given me a reason to doubt, nor do you have any reason to prevaricate about such a thing, I for one trust what you say, and respect you.



Quote:I understand that getting vaccinated is an emotional topic.

It is, but it shouldn't be. The emotion usually ramps up due to fear, and there is no need for it in regards to the vaccine. If folks would just look after their own business, and let others look after theirs, then it would all sort out - but some people can't. They're too scared to. they buy all the fear the media (and social media, on the other side of the coin) can pump out, and that causes them to look at their neighbor askance, as they believe, due to the hype, that the neighbor in question might sneeze and kill their granny. If it scares them that badly, they ought to counsel granny to stay away from unvaccinated neighbors, problem solved. What doesn't solve it is trying to force people into doing things they don't want to, or force them to not do things they DO want to. That never ends well.

I'm neither afraid of vaccinated people nor unvaccinated people. Their life, their decision, It doesn't affect me either way they go. As I mentioned previously, most of my family has gotten vaccinated. I don't shun them for it, I don't avoid them, nor do I pat them on the back for it, and I sure as hell don't give them a ration of crap for it - you'd have to know my family to understand what a bad idea it is to let them get their asses up on their shoulders over nothing. Their life, their decision, and they know better what is best for them than I do.

Same goes for everyone. I don't want the responsibility for the potential results if I were to either talk them into it or talk them out of it. It could go hard either way, so I don't make up their minds for them. Only they can do that. My only responsibility is to respect whatever decision they make.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’

I could not have said it better myself.

Wait....

I have said it myself. The exact same words, with the same amount of frustration, disgust, determination, and conviction.

I have never been more comfortable and resolute with a decision in all my life.

I guess when it comes to this, @Bally002 would say that I am suicidal. tinywondering

No, definitely not mate.  My wife and I got vaxxed only to save our son's life.  (Melanoma - required for hospital))  If we die.  We'll die as Guinea pigs.  Same as our youngest - son.  He is only 19.  Being vaxxed or otherwise meant nothing to us until this Covid issue came along.  

But maybe I'm thinking too deep into this reply.  I'm not sure your of your meaning here. ("I guess when it comes to this, @Bally002 would say that I am suicidal.") I won't criticize.  Please give me your tack on this comment so I can get it into context.  

Kind regards as always,

If I understand correctly, your son needed medical help? He would not be seen unless the parents are jabbed?
No sorry, not like that at all.  They would have seen 'him' regardless.  Bit complicated but in order to receive his specialist treatment we have to travel regularly to the Melanoma clinic, Nth Sydney. (7.5 hrs away).  Its the best one or he would most certainly pass away.  Requires overnighting.  Sometimes my wife is there for days to a week.  When I was not vaxxed I couldn't stay, same with my wife.  

The sons lung collapsed during initial treatment up here so flying was out of the question.  Hence we make up a bed for him in the back of the car and do the old to and fro driving.  He's not well so we want to be with him without complications.  Otherwise where I live life is normal and the needle isn't required.  (No covid cases in my bush shire). 

I don't expect many people to understand our reasons and no-one twisted our arms to get the vax.   We did it to hold our sons hand.  He's a good lad, doesn't touch alcohol, no drugs, smoking or the like.  Lives here at home when not in hospitals.  

My regards,

Bally:)

OK Got it now. First, I wish the best for your son and your family. Prayers going out. 

Second, there are always circumstances and reasons. In your case, I would do the same thing. 

Maybe I just get upset that these laws/mandates/whatever are made without concern for people. It's dressed up as concern but it's not.
