Quote of the day: “The purpose of our human life is huge—to grow larger hearts and open minds—and we celebrate that we can do this in this moment.” ~ Judith Simmer-Brown, “Five Practices to Change Your Mind”
2020 is 56% over and I am not sure that is good news or not.
Thanks to COVID-19 I have become a recluse who can count on the my fingers the number of times in the past 113 days I have been outside my apartment except to go downstairs and get the mail or throw out the recycling. In the past four months, I have been to the vet once, to the pharmacy once, and visited with my daughter and her family exactly four times. I am afraid to go out because so few people are actually wearing masks, and I worry every single time I get in that elevator
I am worried sick about my country. Federal officers – not military folks who have taken an oath to protect citizens -- but a group of folks answerable only to the president whacking, tear-gassing, abducting protestors. A president who says on nationwide TV that he might not accept the results of an election and is already claiming it is rigged. And constant pressure to reopen everything, dispense with masks, and force children to go back to school despite soaring infection and death rates
