One of many photos I took during the COVID pandemic. Probably the most striking and emotionally powerful. Why am I posting it today? Because Iโ€™m dedicating it to my dear friend whoโ€™s no longer with usโ€ฆ Today marks another anniversary. Those were dark timesโ€ฆ

@tombzz Covid time was really sad time...
@proxydark Yeah. Thereโ€™s no way to forget that

@tombzz @proxydark

You say that as if itโ€™s over.

Thatโ€™s terribly incorrect.

@BigBadDog @tombzz I don't want this shit to ever happen again, so be ready if you want it back. For me, it is over. No more vaccine crap, no more death and go back to normal life and happiness
@proxydark @BigBadDog I think no one wants this to happen again. Unlike you, I donโ€™t think vaccines are nonsenseโ€”theyโ€™ve saved a lot of lives. โ€œEnd of deathโ€? You can say or write whatever you want, but that wish wonโ€™t come true. I do agree about getting back to life and happiness, but itโ€™s not something that happens with a snap of the fingers
@tombzz @BigBadDog vaccine is just a point of view. For one was hope, for others death. Not willing to fight about who was right and who was not. I am just happy that Covid ends. That's what matters most to me.
@proxydark @BigBadDog Just to clear up two things real quickโ€”first, vaccines arenโ€™t a matter of opinion. Second, COVID hasnโ€™t disappeared. Cheers!
@BigBadDog @proxydark I didnโ€™t say it was over. I just mentioned it was a rough time, thinking about losing someone close
I am very very sorry for your loss, Tom!
@froeki44 Thanks so much, Sonja! ๐Ÿ˜Š
@tombzz I am so sorry for your loss. I also suffered a big one from covid.. my paternal grandmother.๐Ÿ˜ž
Thank you for sharing.โค๏ธ
@KellyGreen Thank you so much. I'm really sorry for your loss too. Sending warm regards โค๏ธ๐Ÿค—
@tombzz ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿซ‚
A very powerful image though.
Hi, @tombzz@mastodon.social, I am really sorry for your loss ๐Ÿ˜” It looks like today was not really a good day in our personal history ๐Ÿ˜ข Hang in there please, time will eventually do its magic in the midst of all the fond memories โค๏ธ๐Ÿค—
@elsua I get that this affects a lot of people who've lost someone. Stay strong too. Yeah... it just takes time. Thank you ๐Ÿค—
Many thanks, Tom! ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿป๐Ÿ˜Š I agree, unfortunately, too many people affected by this ๐Ÿ˜ข and while time will do its magic it's not going to be happening overnight, so we need to keep pushing forward, if anything, to treasure those memories and for those still with us as well. Thank you, again, for the lovely commentary and hang in there! This, too, shall pass ๐Ÿค—
@elsua Exactly. Way too manyโ€ฆ Of course, I hold on to the memories, sometimes I drift off thinking about everything that happened, but life keeps moving forward. And once again, thank you. Iโ€™m really glad we could talk about this, even in this way on Masto๐Ÿ˜Š
Sorry for you Tom. Memory is the best we can offer to our loved people.
@clinart I feel the same way. Got some great memories!
