Back Again!

I haven't posted in a while, but it isn't because I haven't had anything to say.  Every day as the events of the day unfold I find myself with thoughts, opinions and all too often upsets about what is going on.  Which leaves me with the conclusion that nothing I say will make any difference, so why bother saying it.  I'm reminded of the old comment about how much difference a fart in a hurricane will make.

A few months ago I said that the worst is yet to come and unfortunately I was right.  Wherever I look its worse:  The Supreme Court - the Congress - Ukraine - Gaza - Civil Rights - Freedom (or lack of it) in Universities - LGBTQ+ Rights - Energy Regulations - Immigration - USAID Programs terminated condemning millions to an early death - Etc., etc., etc.

In my bubble life is calm and stable.  Outside its a mess.  So maybe I'll fight my sense of resignation and speak up.  Maybe I won't.  Sorry, but that's the way it is at the moment.
