I was in a small grocery store recently. Masks were suggested, but not required...I did not have mine, and boy did I get looks as well as comments (Can you believe someone came in here without a mask.....). I was a bit upset about the comments etc. afterward, but started to understand where it may have been coming from....many of the experts will say that the point of the mask is not to protect you, but to protect others from you...
I may say that I am healthy and do not have the virus, but the people I run into do not know any different...So to me now, wearing a mask is showing respect to others. And now when I am in a store wearing my mask, and see someone who is not, I think....Can you believe someone came in here without a mask...
Show respect as painful as it may be and throw the mask on....
Afterall...It is about WE....Forget ME just for the moment if you have to..
