yeah i know, there's people that have safe houses, a lot of resources, money. It's really killing the middle class in america and also the hospitals are being overwhelmed completely because of this outbreak surge. I really don't know how to give advice to people because, there at home, they can't do much without the risk of being infected. You know....middle school encouragement messages i don't think would work. Be postive, yes that is good, but positive think is good way to keep you hopes up, but also having hope, i think more stronger than postive thinking. It's more like a intellectal new age way of thinking. Positive thinking was created by Norman Vincent Paele, in the 1950s. Yes it was a big sell back then, and still stay with many people. I think it's --- superfical, like being optimistic, when true hope has deeper roots. I don't know how to explain that, jibber jabber.
But, i see on nightly news how bad it is right now, im the US, and its all over the news this, is a outbreak that spreads so fast. And yes like you said, there's people on islands, and other place living a luxury life. But, you know we can't do anything about that, that's good for them, but need to think what need to do. Middle school advice or encouragement for people during this time, therapist i think are being seen more. I think right now, maybe later on, a grey state could happen. Whatever comes, just have flow through it and pray that won't get infected.
