(65,703 posts)I didn't have kids either. I made that choice when I was still in my teens, mostly due to a screwed up family, but also because I had been an early environmentalism for someone my age and I saw what was coming. I saw that no matter what was done to improve things, the very next round of repubs could just as easily undo what was done.
So I just do what I can to improve my very teeny tiny bit of the universe as best as I can. I know in the end it will all be for nothing but at least I can say I tried.
that will be what I will say, not I told you so, but at least I tried. >shrug<
we all feel helpless sometimes and sometimes all the time, but I feel, even though I'm pretty much shoveling shit against the tide, I'd rather die trying than letting it engulf me. that's the only thing that keeps me somewhat sane in the face of life ending calamity insanity.
