The Richard Rant

Interestingly, while the traditional media is on COVID the social media is on ittybittypiggy, J. Cole and life in general. There is a serious disconnect between what is collectively important and our leaders. This is discussed here from the articles in the papers.

At the time of creating this #BBMA is trending #1 on Trinidad twitter. This shows just like those in India, people want to move forward. However, there are different mind sets. The older generation happy to follow instructions while the younger hate their freedom being curtailed. Either way, we need to start accepting and moving on. If not as a society as individuals.

The business community is finding creative ways to attain and exceed their profit goals. They are doing this with their own short comings and the ever changing landscape. We should focus more on business news and less on COVID news for inspiration going forward. This could also lead to a dynamic change in the social and economic landscape.

I listened to this one and I got so worked up over the nonsense. It baffles me as to how this happened and what can be done. What really baffles me is how it is acceptable to so many. They seem happy and I'm jealous.

I wanted to call this the Massy loophole rant.  We are still focusing on covid and enforcement protocols.  Groceries are allowed to open. However, the food section of the grocery was closed at Food Giant. Meanwhile, Massy and Price Mart operate as normal. The Ministry of Legal Affairs stated that it is impossible to properly create laws for each situation! We should stop engaging in smartmanism. I'm saying that its time to think of the future. We are in debt and it is time to rise above the fear of death.

In the midst of everything, life is in progress. The moon was sighted and at the time of the recording it is Eid. We have to move forward, cherishing the good things and stop with the gloom and doom.

Lockdowns are not sustainable and are causing a myriad of social issues. Some of these have long lasting residual effects. Our leadership lacks vision, and I'm uncomfortable.

COVID is here, so is life and needs. We cannot pause life. We need a plan. We have leaders and systems that govern them, but I just don't understand.

We need to be considerate of others and ourselves as life is unpredictable and and filled with emotional trauma. Even so, we must function for those we care about, our dependents and ourselves.

The newspaper was just depressing today.
