S is for...Self-Isolate

Well, here we go. This is it. The time has come to address it.

No, I’m not declaring the fact I am self-isolating. Not yet anyway, and to be honest if I do self-isolate I likely won’t announce it to everyone...because let’s be honest...who cares?! Like...who cares anymore than really necessary? Like, who cares when anyone posts a picture of their dinner on social media? It‘s short lived. I think we’re talking about that kind of caring. Shit happens, get on with it. Don’t stop sharing pictures of your dinner by the way, I like seeing ideas of what to have for my dinner.

But here’s my take on it all. It’s basically called, ‘Don’t be a dumbass.’

Your body is the main doctor that you need. Your body is literally programmed to do the work that needs to be done to fight this. But you have to support the doctor(your body) to do the work. Otherwise it won’t. You have to do it in the right way.

People keep banging on about finding a cure and there is no cure and yadda yadda yadda.

There is a cure. It’s called eat well, drink well, sleep well, and stay the fuck away from people who you know have the virus. I mean, I’d recommend following the mantra of stay the fuck away from people in general a lot of the time. That’s not a terrible mantra to live by. Sometimes it just needs to be done. Especially if they have a virus. And at this point the numbers are clearly rising and chances are someone you know has it, even if you don’t know they do. I mean, they might not even know themselves. THAT’S WHAT IS SO SCARY ABOUT IT ALL!!!

But if you think about it, you’ve had a shit ton of instances with similar viruses throughout your life time and you are still here. You know a bunch of other people that have had them too. They are still here; annoyingly so in some instances. Everything will be fine. You have survived them before you can do it again.

All you need to do is think. Which I know is genuinely a struggle for some people. We’ll help those people out for sure. But those of you that are just too lazy to think. Personally I hope you get it. You are probably the type of person that needs to learn through experience and it’s to all our benefits if you get the virus. It’s the kick up the arse that you need.

I mean to be honest, for a lot of us it’s actually really really easy to fall into the hands of the virus these days. You can just reach into your pocket pull out your smart phone and there’s every chance it is caked in the virus. And that’s the thing, a virus doesn’t discriminate it just goes after people. All over the world, wherever they are and wherever they are from. All the virus sees is people.

Potentially no one is safe. No one. NO ONE!!!

I actually think the signs have been there for a long time too. That this has been coming. It’s actually been spreading for a very, very long time. I’m not even convinced it started in China. I think it actually started at several places simultaneously. Based on my layman observations. It’s just been simmering away beneath the surface.

But you know, reality is I think we all have to suffer from it at some point. You are going to get the virus. It’s pretty much an inevitability. Sorry to break it to you. You will likely fall victim to it.

So, all that’s left to do is wish you luck over the coming weeks! I hope to catch up with you again soon.

Oh yeah, and before anyone says anything I never said this was anything to do with COVID-19 Coronavirus. Oh no, if anything I’m referring to the other virus - you know, the one where people believe all the bullshit they read and start freaking out.

You’re welcome.

Now go and wash your hands!
