Something Amazing. Pandemic Related.

Sometimes it's the little things in life that bring you hope. Most people think if they get rich off their work or famous or any degree of success, that it would truly make them happy. I kinda disagree. While I do believe fame and fortune can buy off unhappiness, to truly gain happiness is to look for signs that the world and to an extent you can continue living and moving forward, giving you more chances to acheive that and other goals. It doesn't even have to be a big sign.


To put context into this. The Lockdowns in my neck of the woods, have often been like this. While food shops, from Groceries to fast food places remain open, for safety reasons they move the chairs and tables away, both to give more customers room to order and get out as well as keeping people from dining in and spreading the disease potentially. Every time I ever went to a fast food place, it always depressed me to see so many people lining up just to eat. The fact that they stand for so long while they wait for an already swamped cooking crew to get their order, no place to sit and rest their sore limbs. In fact one of my first actions, before the lockdowns, knowing full well I wasn't gonna do it anymore was to sit down and eat there. So I wouldn't miss it as much when I couldn't.


Now with the restrictions slowly easing up, there were two things I did in the past two days. One, I went to a bar and grill. Just so I could enjoy the newly re-opened patios as well as get a cold one. The hostess there told me that in the next day they were soon gonna allow indoor dining. While I congratulated them on that, I didn't quite believe it. So I ate my food, had my beer and left.


The second thing I did was two days after. I went to a pizza place not too far from the location I am currently at. I went there a week before and for reference all their tables and chairs, were shoved into one corner of the place the last time. This time however, not only were they back out. They had little signs on them reassuring us, that the tables are sanitized. Some were still forbidden, but they gave us customers enough chairs to sit and wait for our order. Which is especially good, because it would at least accomodate anyone who is either exhausted, has leg or back related problems or is undergoing a pregnancy amongst most things. Now years ago, putting chairs and tables out would be considered mundane. As that is standard procedure and a morning ride to work for most food places. However after nearly 2 years of putting up with all these bullshit rules and regulations, such a mundane act is considered of miracle.


And to any that disagree, I did not suffer from the side effects of an experimental vaccine for which I need to get the second dose of, just to be treated no different than when I never took one.
