There was a third anniversary of my father's death the other day, and after discussing it with my sister, I decided not to attend.

I made a comprehensive assessment of the risk of infection while traveling to my parents' home and the behavior of the people I was traveling to (and the concerns of the locals).

I think that the biggest reason was

"My personal lack of awareness about weddings and funerals"

-----

Decisions regarding weddings and funerals are very different, depending on the country, the region, and even the religion, depending on the denomination.

Those decisions are often complicated, but I believe they are important triggers for triggering events related to geographical and blood ties.

More than that, if the event can give peace of mind to a living person, it's a good thing.

To wisely complain about such an event is unwise.

And, well, I can do "adult responses and ideas"

In fact, I'm an adult, and I need to stop acting as a youthful indiscretion.

But in a situation like this one, a corona disaster, such "adult responses and ideas" are easily withdrawn in the face of "rational thinking (risk calculation)".
