It’s one of those days where I’m not sure what it will hold, though the weather says sunny. OK, weather, I’ll take you at your word.
Before we get going today, thank you so much, Bev, for the coffee. You’re such a pleasure to know, and I feel like I learn something from you daily. It’s usually weird. Those are the best kinds of things to learn. You are very much appreciated!
Today I am, like so many others, befuddled and yet swimming in a sea of “I told you so.” It’s not possible people didn’t know, did they not care?
Did they assume it would target all the people they hate and they would row merrily along, enjoying the scenery and the dead bodies floating in the water?
We all know the answer to that.
It’s a lot easier to stop something before it starts than it is to stop it once it has started. And that’s where we are.
It started long ago. It’s becoming entrenched.
I certainly don’t have answers, any more than I have the magic ability to go back and make it not so. It’s so.
Here we are.
That they’ve started to turn on each other is of little solace.
Note I didn’t say “no solace.”
Because it is of solace.
Just not as much as if we were in the universe with continued job growth, a booming economy, planes that leave from where they’re supposed to leave and arrive to where they’re going, and a cordial relationship with our neighbors to the north.
I’m really bitter about that one.
Nope, we live a universe where he fires all the people who stop the plane crashes and then, nearly immediately, surprise surprise, one of the worst air disasters in history.
This isn’t a great place. Had that happened under anyone else, we’d be having hearings over it.
A lot more than four people died.
My anger branches into tendrils in a million different directions these days. It’s difficult to focus on just one.
I guess that’s what we have to work on, then. Not squandering our energy over a million things happening all at once, but learning to focus. Learning to hone in.
That’s another kind of discipline. But right now, as things stand, every one of us needs to strengthen our skillsets, whatever they may be.
Even if it’s a new hobby for fun, you never know where those skills may take you or help you.
And with that Tuesday jaunt around what’s happening in my head, I shall wish you a wonderful day.
