The Sheep Who Stands Alone

Being a sheep is a wondrous thing. Never alone, always with a crowd. One follows sheep rules all day long. But this sheep alone,stands in fright. Oh, winter's coming! There will be cold blight and nights. The other sheep turn their hindquarters on her. After all, she had the unabashed nerve, to listen to her own heart's inner murmur.           10/15/2020             Opus#2

Thank you, Robert. You, Andrea myself and others follow nothing blindly. Twitter and Facebook will smack you down if you tell the truth. Should rename it...Sheepbook)). I didn't come here to be a joke steer. I am weak in that area. Admire greatly those who can. Am in my Moms wheelchair yesterday and today till I see a podiatrist. Not fun at all. I hope all goes well with you, thanks for FAVINg, Love, Panagiota

I love that you are a sheep that stands alone. I wear my black BAA BAA mask in stores where it is mandatary, very proud to be a lone sheep who hates "their" rules on us. Hurrah for you, Pangie.

That makes two of us at the soup out of 300,000? Yes, I know there are more. We both know we are poison because wee love freedom and have overcome Fake News. Even the World Health Organization says herd immunity, no masks, open schools and businesses. Those with comorbidity need not shut down an entire world. Even religions are accepting themselves as non essential? I am old enough to remember Auschwitz. And people bowing to insane government rules. What are we, the new Germany? There is no new normal..There is a a new world insanity!!99 per cent recovery rate is no reason to hide, add phony death numbers, and zero faith in god. Bow to Soros, Gates, all have horns.(((Wear your BAA BAA mask, be grateful you don't live in California..truth hidden at all costs. Thank you for being mentally balanced.)) Yahoozie! Hugs Pangie xx

A bit of advice my mother gave to me was never follow the crowd, and I acted on her advice, it has kept me on the straight and narrow, Tom

Wonderful Mom you had! The inspiration for this, I realized now, comes from the Holy Sisters of Nazareth,,,in first grade))) " so if all the sheep are going over a cliff to die, are you going to follow them?" this does not mean I had a perfect life. But I only did what suited me no matter if anyone liked me. Ir worked to my advantage and I started raising questions all the time. The sheep run like heck. True people line the real deal. You, jan and Darlene are wonderfully real and loving. Thank you Pangie.
