Feeling rather apocalyptic... [View all]
We here in the inland Pacific NW have been living under a pall of hot smoky haze for a week. Our typically stunning views of bright blue sky and tawny late-summer hills blunted and snuffed.
Along with talk of rising nuclear tensions with NK, environmental degradation that is intensifing exponentially, and the underlying death wish of tRumplandia, I am recommending to my 24 year old daughter that she go out and grab all the life and fun she can in present times...while sharing her gift of love for children far and wide in her work.
I find myself ratcheting down my personal social engagements; perhaps being more guarded about who with and how I spend my time...much of it spent in caring for my animal family, making sure they are comfortable and well taken care of. I am fortunate to do social justice work, so am able to stay engaged with my principles in that way.
How are you doing?
