I hate to agree with you on this, but I do. Let's hope against hope that we're wrong.
@FrankCannon @LiseL @process 1962, 1984... These were also time where the world seemed hell bent on its end.
There have been others. It's a trite saying, oft repeated, "it is always darkest before the dawn..." so perhaps it is better to say that we cannot be assured of what will happen tomorrow, and that is the cradle of hope.
We can always choose in the now to live towards the best aspirations of hope, and love, or to surrender to despair.
We plant the seeds of tomorrow with that choice.
@NiveusLepus Unfortunately anything good we may plant doesn't get long enough to thrive before it's pulled out by the root these days.We may choose and want to live peacefully but those currently with the power to bring that about simply don't want it. @LiseL @process
This is how I've felt for several years and it's been ramped up thanks to COVID.
That damn virus seems to have caused greed, arrogance, and lack of compassion to increase and speed up, (not just in gov'ts or corps), and I don't see enough people trying to turn it around. 😞
I'm exhausted by it all. And I know that's what they want. They want us to give up.
@see_the_sus Squeeze people hard enough,disregard the needs and wants of the voters and they start to push back.Seeing that on steroids now with mass demonstrations popping up everywhere regularly. @process @LiseL @NiveusLepus
