WRITING
Today I unburdened myself to myself of the malaise I am feeling about the direction of American politics and the revelation of what so many Americans believe is the American way. Everyone has to deal with what is happening in their own way. We are all different. But this is my attempt to deal with American assumptions of exceptionalism in my own way. So I wrote all day and finally caught up on the daily posts that I am writing. Almost no one glances at what I write which suits me just fine. I find that writing allows me to deal with the world around me and the process makes me feel more alive. So I keep doing it for myself.
