The asylum doors aren’t just open, they have been ripped off and all the criminally insane are among us.

I had to take a break; I couldn’t write, I was just so filled with rage. And if you couldn’t guess? The dumpster fire to the south of our borders would be the cause.

I just wrap my head around this total disintegration of a country that once touted itself as “Land of the Free.”

Anyway…although writing is my usual escape, outlet, comfort zone; it just wasn’t cutting it. So I made an escape, to the world of Sanctuary and Tamriel. IYKYK. It is working up to a point, I mean…I know it is escapism, bordering on the “head in the sand” mode but the feeling of rage, helplessness was doing some real harm.

I do try to put things in perspective. I have a great life, I have a fabulous family. My sons are brilliant, funny and good human beings. My husband is my best friend, my soul mate. We’ve been through fire, and came out the other side, stronger.

I have friends in other countries who are suffering in unimaginable ways. From Eastern Europe to the Caribbean. I had a friend in the Middle East, there was a civil war (funded by the U.S.) and she fell off the radar. I tried to reach out, years ago but no luck.

Oh we have our issues here but they aren’t even a blip on the scale of what others on this blue marble are enduring. The biggest issue is the intrusion of American bullshit, racism and grasping for U.S. bribes by a few disgusting “politicians”.

Politically speaking, I am neither a fan of any of our political parties, I am very proud of Mark Carney, his mastery of diplomacy and I do feel confident he can pilot us through the disintegration of the United States by diversifying our trade partners and distancing ourselves from the Hitler-esque behaviours.

Well, I do ask that we all look around, take a few moments and appreciate what we have. Not just material goods but family, self-respect, honesty, dignity. Be proud of who you are. Stay strong and always stand up for the little gal/guy, stand up for equality, stand up against racism, bigotry in all its forms. No voice is too small.
