can we empathize..

can someone tell me why I got the NASTIEST looks from ppl when I packed up to leave. As I was leaving last night I carried my stuff to my car and all these ppl turned looked at me like I was insane. Like it’s not that crazy for ppl to be leaving when there are ppl without homes anymore, the fires are at 0% containment, the air quality is this bad, & we’re at the mercy of the wind.

there are plenty of reasons why people with the choice to leave have decided to stay. I just don’t know why we gotta stare down ppl who feel unsafe.
