And again, I am happy to hear that your family members recovered. And I agree with you this crisis highlights how selfish and apathetic people have become towards one another. If there is a silver lining maybe it's that they were afflicted relatively early while hospital capacities and capabilities are still able to cope. I worry many thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, will not be able to receive adequate care sooner rather than later.

Crystal, I addressed it to those who have read my profile. If you have read it for yourself, you would have seen that is says, Interests: Christianity. When I speak on terms such as these, my faith is always going to be priority. There is nothing theological about my belief. My belief has been documented my multiple nations over the past 2020 years. I am glad you are all for it!

Thank you for acknowledging my families distress. It’s been rough, to say the least.

You are right, people have been selfish, me included. But now I have a chance to realize my flaws.

Crystal, I see you as an xoutpost friend and wouldn’t think twice to help you out. Always remember that.

Your friend,

Happy

No sorry to hear that, or I hope your family recovers. And then everyone wonders why our country has gone to shit!

No one on this board has any REAL sympathy, because if you did there would have been replies, even if you don’t like me.

That’s why we’re in the situation we’re in. Because nobody give a shit anymore.

But, for me.. I pray to Jesus all of you here on this board and your families, friends, or whoever is important to you be healed in the name of Jesus.

I don’t care if y’all don’t like me. It’s not going to stop me from praying for y’all while we’re going though this VERY hard time.

Sorry you are offended, and glad all is better now.

It's likely that there are not that many following this thread. And there are some of us that missed that post. Even if the opposite is true, lack of empathy has not been my forum experience.

It’s not that I was Per se personally offended. My hope was to change the direction of the thread, using a personal experience.

I’ve noticed the politically charged environment these days, and I think it’s unhealthy. For roughly 8 years I’ve been visiting xoutpost, and it was always a place for discussing our good times and bad times with are E53’s, and maybe a joke here and there. I have no other social media accounts, zero. My wife told me whether I like it or not xoutpost is a type of social media, but I never closed it because it’s always been informative.

There is definitely empathy on this forum with out a doubt. I also hope I did not fracture any relationship I have made on this forum, and I personally apologize if I came off harsh. My point was only to send a message that we need to come together right now more the ever. Division will only allow this negative atmosphere, not only on this thread, but more importantly in our society, to tear us further apart. This seems extremely dangerous to me during the current time, while people are falling ill by the hour.

My family to this point received healing, and I pray their continually protected from any illness, virus, injuries, or harm, as well as every family on this forum.

Hi Happy. So sorry to hear about your plight. It is very unfortunate that one of our own in this community is faced with such horifying and sad situation.

I sincerely hope your family recovers soon, and all the best to you and your family!

Sorry that I didn't see your post soon enough. I had a tumultuous week myself, didn't come back to this thread until today.

RE: X5 Unrelated, but Good Information in Times of Need

I am neither democratic or republican. I am a Christian, and all that matters to me is making sure that I please my father in heaven so that I may live another day. Yesterday is forgotten, today has enough problems, and tomorrow is not promised. That was my only point, that we need to get real right now! The situation is very serious.

Overboost thank you so much for showing support. Some of us never get support, some of us have lived our entire life without support. But, it’s by the Holy Spirit and my Savior Jesus Christ that I’ve made it to this point. Right now nothing else matters, all I care is that we all make it through this.

Happy, I only read from page 7. I am sorry for your loss as this is the first I'm hearing of it. I also have people in my life who got it, but luckily they are turning the corner. I hope you and your family can take solace in your good memories of them.

I did not have loss, but VERY close. However, it changed me permanently seeing my loved ones near death.

I will never forget the healing they received, it was God himself whom allowed them to live.

The Bible says according to Jesus; “I am the way, the truth, and the life, No one will enter the kingdom of heaven, unless through the the son”.

The Father, nor the Son, nor the Holy Spirit, took a member of my family. However, to me personally, I cannot become complacent. This is not a time for in lack of a better term BS’n.

My family members were spared, but only because of their love for Jesus.

Trust me, I seen it with my own eyes. These times are no coincidence, we had it coming, myself included.

We all got a bit to comfortable, but....

It’s not too late we can change.

People need to realize life is a gift! Hug your Wife, your Son, your Daughter, your Mother, your Father! Whomever is important to you.

You never know if it’s going to be your last chance!

Love,

HAPPY

Sending out all warm feeling for all those caught up in the crisis. Here in Wash DC the political posturing is at the 100% level. All are hoping to put some wind back into the election circus. They pander to the press so don't take everything you see on TV as fact.
Think of it as just preening for the show.
Meanwhile be cautious, use prudent procedures and stay healthy for your loved ones who need you around. For your loved ones, hold them close!
