24. True...and even those of us who consider ourselves sane these days...

are challenged by all the shit flying loose these days. Excuse my language...but, there's been much that has been challenging for the past two decades and that any of us who are older than 30 can keep on trucking is amazing... And then there's the under 30 who don't know that things were better once than they are these days suffering with job losses, college debts or low/no wage jobs and just trying to hang on.

It's enough to make even what we think of as the sane become "challenged." I hate to think of those who suffer from Mental Difficulties trying to find some comfort. Meds can't heal it all. There needs to be a "supportive community" and those days of that are pretty much long gone for most of us at any age with the challenging changes in our society where we are split off from family/friends by job, location, politics and lifestyle challenges.

It's an incredibly rough time to live in.
