The world is changing, quickly. The dish at Arecibo was on my bucket list. It's dead now. The bombing in Nashville, TN the morning of Christmas day. Trump and congress not providing any type of monetary relief for the people who have been suffering during the Covid-19 epidemic. What the hell? I mean seriously WHAT THE HELL? I always thought that the USA was better than that. I believed in the checks and balances in our government to function properly and protect the people. I believed the people of the USA cared about each other, the environment our children will inherit, and the rest of the world. I thought that my own experience with people being selfish, hurtful and uncaring was an anomaly. Apparently it's not. I can't explain to people why they should have empathy and care about what happens to others. We have become a country that follows the idea that "I've got mine so screw you". It hurts. It hurts my heart, my brain and my beliefs. I'm not Christian but it seems like the rabid Christians are the worst about this, using their faith as an excuse to hate. Again, WHAT THE HELL? I urge anyone who sees this to defy these ideas. Be kind. Be generous. Stand up for what is right - and legal does not equal right. Feed the poor. Recycle. Don't let the haters win just because they are loud. You don't have to scream to win. Don't believe that you can't make a difference just because their hate is louder than your kindness.
