Their goal was to frighten you, but you did not fear. Then they tried to warn you, but you did not give in. They tried to isolate you from your family and friends, but you said no way. Then came the lockdowns, but that did not deter you.
Along came the mandates, but you held the line with strangers. Fines, jail, rain, floods, fire, rubber bullets, and pepper spray was not enough to keep you prisoner. You still showed up, weary, hurt and exhausted.
It is you who they must fear not the other way around. They know they can't control you which is what scares them the most. You did not comply, conform, or submit to their tyranny, and for that you should stand proud.
Those that caved in around you may mock you, ridicule you, snitch on you and persecute you but in reality they are afraid of your courage. They are in awe of your determination and how someone could be so resilient. Never ever forget that. Ever.
Be brave. Be proud.
