What the hell, DU?

168. I'm Also One Who Left Here & Just Recently

came back. Not sure for how long, the past 2 weeks have upped my stress level beyond healthy. Wanted to see what others were writing since I stopped. I see some names that are still here, but your post says it all.

I recently wrote a small post about how I feel, which is how you feel. I think I said I don't ask questions anymore because there are never any answers. Unless & until the people of this nation wake up or better yet RISE up, it's only going to get worse.

As a nation there have always been problems, but there was a time that as a nation people stood up and said ENOUGH! Since I'm a Boomer, I doubt I'll see much change before I check out. AND, I've said too many times in the recent past that in some ways it's better that I'm older because I fear for what's to come. I was taught all my life to stand up for my rights and try to make things better for my children and those who come behind. I joined up with the Occupy Movement, but it fizzled here. I stayed until we were down to less than 10. I CAN'T do it anymore and it DOES depress me.

The best I feel I can hope for is to at least keep my head above water long enough to make it through. Don't have much money, more & more try NOT to spend any money unless it's needed, but I have kids & grand kids. IT HURTS!
