Alarms Sounding Everywhere...

Hi there! I've been working, of course, and haven't had time to dilly-dally.  However, I have noticed there are more folks out there questioning where this virus came from and why.

Tobin laughs at my incredulity over everything that's going on in the world.  But he still says this is just part and parcel of the regular scheme of things, the grand plan. This has all happened before and will happen again before the truth is revealed, AGAIN, to the world.

I'm not so happy about that, but I am more than willing to accept the possibility that the worst is nearly over for my country, if not for the rest of the world. Tobin assures me there are only five more weeks to go before this whole Coronavirus mess is essentially over for the U.S.

I don't know if that's true, but Tobin has never before steered me wrong. So I'm gonna wager that he's right and I'm gonna do my best to stop worrying about my elder family members and stop being so disappointed that my family (which has celebrated 100 Easter Family Reunions in a row up to now) is for the first time in 100 years not going to have it's family reunion celebration at the same location it has been held since before I was born.  In fact, the reunion has been postponed indefinitely at this point.

​My loved ones are safe from me and my child. Neither I, nor my child have visited my aged loved ones since early March other than to wave at them from outside.  So I am doing my best to protect them - even though I miss them terribly.

I'm still working each and every day at my essential job and I'm still hoping to get the remaining three books out sometime soon. But it's interesting to take a step back and look at this whole thing from an objective point of view... especially given that my best friend, Tobin, views it as something that's natural, that's going to happen several more times before our society will finally be introduced to the truth.  Many of the world's governments have already started steering folks in this direction, but there's still some way to go before we can be shown the truth.

Back to this virus... Relatively speaking, my family has remained untouched by it - and thankfully so. Many people cannot claim the same and my heart aches for them. I cannot adequately express my grief for those people and their families who have lost loved ones.

Again, Tobin says this is just one of several pandemics (and other issues) promised by those who truly rule this world and we all still have a long way to go before this is over. Of one thing Tobin has assured me... the way of life we knew before the introduction of this virus will never return. We all must learn to live within this new dynamic.  Apparently, it's essential that we all be exposed to this (and a few other) viruses so that we can become immune before being introduced to a whole new life in which we would be exposed to all manner of viruses and bacteria to which we as humans have not yet had a chance to build up an immunity.

I have no doubt Americans can do it, but it's not going to be easy. There are too many of us who are old enough to remember "the good old days."

However, this too shall pass, I assure you.

The whole issue of being alone is most definitely affecting me and I miss being around those who know me best, who are willing to listen and converse with me on certain matters.  Tobin won't come around me during this "stay-at-home" period and I'm admittedly feeling quite alone.  What's worse, it upsets me that people have to die for this.  Why is death necessary to prepare us for the truth?  I don't understand.

Again, Tobin laughs at my naivete.

I used to feel a bit superior in my knowledge of the things to come.  But now, I just want it to be over.  I don't like hearing about all the deaths... all the sick and suffering.  I don't like thinking about it..., I..., I think I need another big ol' drink!  

But no matter what happens, I know one thing for certain.  We, as a people, will make it through this.  We will go on and we shall overcome every obstacle in our way.  If I've learned anything from my time on this earth, it's that humans can do anything they set their minds to.  So, even as alone as you may be feeling right now, no matter that you and I and scores of other people out there may be sitting at home feeling like there's no one else out there who could even care one whit about us... we'll survive.

I'll write more later.  If you need to talk, please feel free to leave a comment here and I'll do my best to get back with you in a timely manner.

In the meantime, stay safe, stay at least six feet away from everyone else and stay true to your human nature.

Sincerely,

​Teagan Brody
