Default Changing other's behavior

Hey folks, to all those who are worried and complaining about other people's behavior during this crisis, I humbly suggest you direct your energy toward keeping yourselves healthy in both mind and spirit. Please realize that you are not going to change anyone else, no matter what you have to say: hoarder's will continue to hoard, PB players will continue to play PB, groups will gather within less than 6 feet of each other, people will continue to play golf, etc., etc., that is, until or unless they are no longer permitted to do so or existing rules are enforced. You would be that much more protected by taking all of that effort trying to change others and directing it toward your own well being. All said IMHO.

That's true and nicely said.

Another reality is that those who flout common sense, circulate freely and all the rest ... at some point self-select out of the problem by getting the virus.

Peace be upon them ...
