People do weird things to get attention. Have you ever seen the show where some guys snorted fire ants up their noses with a straw? I think both of them died. In another segment a man ran out of beer and started drinking gasoline—bad decision. A squirrel scampering across the path of a fast-approaching truck has more sense!
Is it the long period of being cooped - up that has led to individuals getting more, what, innovative with a double - order of psychological parkour that has invaded social media with at some times life-threatening activities?
Psychologically speaking, it can be a cry for help. With what the U.S. has been through with lockdowns, loss of employment, healthy in-person social activities such as having a coffee, lunch, book or poetry clubs, sewing clubs, sports, and family gatherings, all under the heavy cloud of masks and fear that if even anyone sneezes in your general direction they have a panic attack.
Look, I know about panic disorders. I have PTSD, panic/anxiety, with a brush of OCD, and physiologically have COPD and battle chronic pain in my back and sacroiliac joints. I nearly blew out some discs L1-6 (have 6 Ls). My thoracic and mid-vertebra ache.
BUT God. He knows this. I know that I can trust in Jesus to give me strength in all things. Sometimes I do stupid; Bipolar I is like that. But no matter how bad things get, I know Christ’s Return is so very close, and after those who sleep in Jesus rise, I will be caught up with all other believers in Him who live and remain. What an awesome, wonderful, beautiful and glorious Event to know is coming!
Hallelujah!!!!! AMEN!
