A Call To Live

A CALL TO LIVE Hands joined, strolling on quiet, lamplit, peaceful streets. We, were so joyful from our heads to the bottoms our feet. Life was sweet, soft and loving back then. Will we ever be so blessed and free, to do that again, when? I cried, oh, I didn't want to tell you today! Just watching a simple movie of people having a bar-b-que and at play. The tears became torrents when I saw them hugging each other. Now forbidden, we, to hug and love one another? It got only worse when I saw could see real teeth and mouths. I stood up,"I want that again for ourselves" ...oh, I did shout! Like a fool, I wanted to crawl into that ambient, flickering screen! I stared at the mask on the wall and yes, started to scream! Our beautiful children are losing their childhoods, too. No friends, no playgrounds, living as animals in a technological zoo. We cannot live like this, even churches are locked! Our governors with a political power grid, have in truth,all priests, defrocked. It's time to grow up, and get out, love and give. Take all countries back, and for heaven's sake..once again live. Grandparents, frail and living alone with no hugs from grandchildren? Remember, please do, your parents, their time maybe not today... but when? Recall governors, get busy with those acting worse than slave holders. They have stolen your freedoms with a Trojan Horse called a virus. Do what you must, this is a clarion call to be far bolder with God's Blessings and trust! August 14, 2020 2:45am PST

- The flu cost 1,700 people their lives in 2019 alone in Norway - I know that not everyone dies of covid-19 but, I want to be careful ... and use my head - hygiene is important no matter what - Anyone who suspects that they are infected with covid-19 should have the opportunity to get tested - Children must be allowed to be children ... and children must go to school ...and could be active in sports or play - No country can afford to stop in business ... life must go on and we need love ..

If I did not explain. I have studied this each day, I have been in my house since Frbruary, when I saw all the deaths in China from the China virus Like others here, I have a physical condition that prevents me from socializing as it could mean my end. Like you, the hand washing the medical way, is the safest. CA has a madman for a Gov.who makes us poorer by the minute. Proud of your husband! Agree so much on schooling with you. Not all homes are safe here for kids, they are beaten with patents who are ex cons..more kids will die this weekend in Chicago. It's an ignored issue.can you believe it? Thank you Anne Lise, Panagiota xx

- I still mean ... we have to take it seriously ... we do not have full control - I have never used a mask ... but keep my distance ... and wash my hands ... maybe I give fewer hugs than before ... but we live almost as normal ... my husband drives sick people to the hospital ... it's his job ... he can not stop working ... he must ... but must be careful :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Most of your comments here were smart. They know what's Up!!! You GO GIRL!!!! TEll it like it is.Keep telling the truth. The 92% owned liberal media is sure not telling it here in the states. India and Africa and Latin America using HC, not even allowed any more in America. I heard Britain not doing so well, yet countries with herd immunity doing fine. India can't possibly practice "social distancing" and per capita, their death rates lower than ours. Wake up, sheeple! Pangie is right!!

CDC Estimate: 45 Million Flu Cases, 61,000 Flu-Associated Deaths in 2017-2018 U.S. Flu Season -- If anyone thinks this virus will ever be gone, wake up and smell the roses. We need to get back to work and school.

Tell it like it is Prince de Mino. Newsweek magazine lists no lockdown Sweden with the smallest number of deaths worldwide, the RU doing its best to make them look like fools, kids go to school there and people work. We are a country imploding with fear and overrun with criminals as righteous dudes! Thanks..maybe you can wake people up.,,PR

Powerful evil people always use or create a crisis or crises to further their own agendas. Sadly, there's nothing new or surprising in any of this. Kind regards.

You are a master of history. I keep thinking of Hitler and his justification for Jew killing. I honestly could see that happening here again. I will not say to which group. Except to the best, and heaven help Christians. They don't know really what Sharia Law means. I am stunned an American just to get votes would invite death to his fellow Americans! He is the Grim Reaper walking. Forever~ Pangiexx

Hi Pangie; people are being made into fools. Masks don't work the way we are being told to use them. These masks are not designed to be worn for long periods of time in enclosed places, moisture in the mouth and nose perfect breeding places for virus proliferation. It is promoting virus...and prolonging the disease in society. Education has been so dumbed down! What hurts me most is how gullible people are, ignorant about disease and what it takes to keep a Free Society.

Hi Prince de Mino! Thank you for telling the truth. Some TV channels should have the call letters...as LIES. FOLKS BETTER FIND DR, DAVID SAMADI on Twitter, or Dr Mercola,who tells the bare truth about this masking. People are so brainwashed they beat up fellow Ameticsns who are sitting eating lunch in the park without a mask. Or, the more venomous ones, spray you with pepper spray as you walk your dog. Or..they report you to the PD? Get a life, you brown shirts..see my comments to Darlene and Chantelle. Free? We are funding states with the most lockdowns as their budgets fall in latrenes. Run by FOC..,friends of China and the China Virus. Hey, it was not born in France. Learn all you can, Joe and tell your friends and family.please! Thank you. American, and proud of this country! Pangie xx

Hello Panagiota,I do think that we all feel caged including the children. I feel the children have no future. I like the way you brought the past and future together. Hugs Darlene xxxx-oooo.

Hello Panagiota, yes the U.S.police state is in a n=mess. Children should be in schools but they are scared to go. Tha is a mess to. Crime should be stronger. yet your having problems keeping the police. it is a mess. Hugs Darlene xxxx-oooo

Good morning Darlene. Wish I could hug you...here is an electronic one-)))..playgrounds actually stimulate brain development in the very young. This no play, could retard them. There is so much political lies afoot plus the big foot of Union money(BOO) to close and stop the opening of schools. Chicago schools are closed for who knows how long and if they ever go back, may never learn American history. Imagine Canada destroying their past. We have four cites afire each weekend, and so they are Removing police. One cannot touch a looter, they are the new saints of America. Children die in Chicago each weekend. New York doesn't like police either. a police state is more to their liking. I tell you, I have cried many times over this. I talk too much. Thank you. Pangie xx

- Although it's painful we have to take this virus seriously ... the infection rates are rising .... and it's unfortunately far until we get control ... but, I agree with you ... we lose so much - A great writing with deep feelings, Panagiota :) - hugs // Anne-Lise :)

Disagree on Sweden.i am in contact with their consulate. Unlike America, they are not going down the tubes financially. Unless a kid has an underlying condition, they can't die from Covid. But Know I Homor what you know. The EU has been on SWEDEN's back since the beginning. Here, we are all crazy, and bombarded with lies about numbers constantly. If I die tonight, I am automatically considered a covid death.that is so insane. So are all the countries going to shut down when the cold and flu season starts? Of course. All we labeled covid...it's a tragedy, kids die every tear from the flu and pneumonia. Nobody cared. PR Thanks Anne -Lise. There was a blog about this months back. I got insulted terribly there. Since then, will never blog here. The knives come out and ugliness shows and blog owners allow it!

- Sweden made a mega big mistake ... fortunately not Norway and Denmark - In Norway the average age of the dead is 84 years - We must stop believing that this only affects the elderly - No one is invincible against this virus - Vitor (14) is one of the youngest who has died of coronavirus in Europe - Julie, (16) teenager who died of coronavirus: "She only had one cough"

The rate of recovery is very high..are you not aware that all cases of any disease are marked COVID now? If young and healthy, those folks fare worse staying home. Any bit of extra weight puts those at risk. So being obese and wearing a mask? A lost cause,mand high risk.ANY deaths..all COVID.? Insanne.You won't die unless you are elderly or have a condition. Those enormous recovery rates are not shown. You can get it more than once and still live. Just like the flu. Vaccines against these do not always work either. Suicide rates are soaring, use of benzodiapazenes, opioids and alcohol.. You got the point, though. Our government except for Sweden, does not understand 'herd immunity'... Worse, they love controlling our lives. Look at percentages, not numbers. Remember Please.,cases reported does not mean dead. Thank you, dear Anne Lise. Pangie xx
