I am an emotional person, but I didn’t expect to feel my feelings when I went to get the vaccine today - just the jab. But the minute it was done (so very quick), I felt a sudden wave of intense gratitude for the vaccine developers and researchers and for all the health care workers that were there today and so very kind and positive. I had a visceral sense that I was part of all of us moving slightly away from this past year and into a changed world. I almost shed a few tears. This photo is my souvenir of this momentous day/year/collective experience.
Hurrah!! It did feel like some sort of contribution to the war effort I thought - I can fully understand your emotions as suddenly the stress of the past year and hope for the next combine.
Fantastic--yaaaay!!! I know what you mean. Considering all the road blocks and hurdles so many scientists, researchers, care-givers and more had to maneuver, it is truly extraordinary that we have come this far and a safer, healthier return to "normal" is moving into sight at last!
