Our government is now headed by treasonous criminals, bolstered by ideological idiots

9. As a realist, I don't have the luxury of believing in religious fantasies

of afterlifes or reincarnation. You're welcome to believe in them, and I'm within my rights to call them wishful bullshit. Make believe is not a source of hope for me.

As such, I realize that we biological creatures have one shot at life, and this is it. I'm 62, but in relatively great health. Doesn't mean I don't take my prescribed meds, I do. Perhaps I feel a greater sense of urgency that do you because I don't believe in divine justice or second chances after death. This life is all we've got.

For those of us with more yesterdays than tomorrow's in our lives, it's hard to remain calm when you realize that your time to do anything significant is waning, and that there will not be a round two to continue the fight after this life is over.
