“The mind that is not baffled is not employed.”
~ Wendell Berry
Dear readers, are your minds baffled by the current state of the world?
My mind is unhinged by this article in The New York Times: “That ‘Miracle Cure’ You Saw on Facebook? It Won’t Stop the Coronavirus.”
I just don’t know what to believe! What is fake news, and what is even faker news?
Before reading that article, I believed that the posts with home remedies for treating the virus were truth.
After reading that article, I felt like mental constructs were coming undone, but then a suspicious thought arrived on the scene: What if the vaccine makers are paying the media to debunk the healing power of home remedies… Who’s the fakest of them all?
But then again, I can (at times) be easily duped. The posts with natural remedies seemed convincing. I mean, why would I have doubted the suggestion to gargle with warm salt water?
Can you relate to my frustration here?
Sending much love from my quarantine to yours…
With a baffled mind,
