moving forward with impeachment, gaining redemption in the jail, fighting diseases with new therapies, we love the idea that things will get better. even though we already are better off then our ancestors, we work hard and keep pushing our children harder with this idea that it can get better. as a group we are always measuring the others around us, pretending if we were in that situation, only then would we be content. so hard to keep contentment with where we are today, everything is always falling apart and you are either improving your situation or falling behind. staying in one place is hard, if not impossible. change is the only constant we know.
when it stops working what will we do. when markets freeze, when the lines stop forming, when society breaks down how will we manage? what will keep us together. its optimism and hope is what we will do.
i hope the writing improves, hope that it finds it intended readers and that it will resonate with some. hope it ends up in some useful storyline or finds its voice.
