I’ll admit it. I’m overwhelmed.

I’m overwhelmed by the naked cruelty we see daily. I’m overwhelmed by a pandemic our government refuses to rein in. I’m overwhelmed by armed conflict escalating around the world.

It’s a lot.

So here is my wisdom for today, take it or leave it. It’s OK to feel overwhelmed.

That’s it.

I can’t offer solutions because there are no solutions. The world as it is right now is overwhelming. There are very evil people with a whole lot of power.

But, like Kimmy Schmidt, we can take it ten seconds at a time. Just ten seconds. That’s all we need to do.

That’s me for Wednesday. Take care of yourself, and remember, just ten seconds.
