Here's How You Grieve 100,000 Lives

[Me.]

"You wear a mask at the damn grocery store and you wash your hands and keep your distance and show kindness to cashiers-and you follow the simple rules put in place to keep people healthy and alive because that's what decent human beings do, and because 100,000 grieving families deserve it."

4. Hi Me, here's the link I think you meant to have in the OP.

When you have a FB post to include in a DU post, you need to select only the part up to the ? and drop the rest.

18. Thanks for the post. John Pavlovitz speaks the truth.

...from the article:

Nearly 100,00 people, America.

100,000 lives in 108 days.
100,000 mothers, best friends, favorite uncles, beloved teachers, helpful neighbors, papas, grandmas, first loves, only children, soul mates.
100,000 givers and helpers and creators and lovers and thinkers and healers.
100,000 silenced laughs and interrupted plans and abandoned dreams and stilled bodies and quieted voices.
100,000 empty chairs and beds and house and embraces.

In three months:
1 fully packed football stadium.
38 9-11s.
1.75 Vietnam Wars.
