Tonight, I would like not to do much or to say much other than to ask: How is everyone doing?
With all that is going on from the still lingering COVID-19 pandemic to the still lingering aftermath of a mob of Donald Trump’s supporters attempt to overthrow the government on Jan. 6, 2021 to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine to high (though lowering) gas prices to inflation to the erosion of civil rights…and I could increase the list as anyone could.
It’s easy to feel tired, worn out, angry, depressed, fearful...or any negative emotion or extreme stress.
Honestly...I think that feeling negative emotions and/or stressed is a totally healthy response to the times.
At the least, I think that we have to be able to acknowledge those feelings.
Personally, I’m doing OK. Today.
I’m still working both of my jobs and tending fairly well to my other activities that are a part of my mental and emotional health regimen. I have literally had to double down on some of those activities and even that isn’t good enough to keep out some depressing thoughts sometimes.
But with my “regimens” I know that at some point, I’ll be OK even if it is only for the rest of the day.
I’ll handle tomorrow when it gets here.
So until then, well...there will always be yet another Josh Hawley clip set to music.
x I know y'all thought Josh Hawley was running away but I can confirm he heard them call "Diva's to the dance floor please," was like "THIS IS MY JAM!" and ran to the dance floor as he was instructed. pic.twitter.com/ZbYvQUe4sB — THEE Hercules Mulligan (@johnvmoore) July 22, 2022
