So much to say I’m lost in my own mist.
For so long I have contemplated what I once thought were the mysteries of life. Now, I laugh at my own misdirection and willful ignorance. I. was young and dumb.
You don’t think that youth is wasted on the young while you’re the young. Eligibility into AARP with full benefits suggests a not so subtle truth. Maybe I do have more years behind me than ahead of me.
Don’t get me wrong the thought does not intimidate me in the least. What it does do, very successfully, is spark a sense of urgency to say what I have been meaning to say for years. “What in hell is going on?”
I have over the last decade or so found myself thinking this thought repeatedly. We live in a world and certainly a country where aggression, rudeness, and conflict are seen as normal and possibly as some type of confidence in one’s abilities. Up/down, right/left, male/female, true/false, parents/children, and anything with an opposing counterpart are all out brawling for dominance.
If one group is saving the dolphins another group wants to save the whales while a third group could care less because they are more pissed off about the increase in cost of gas at the pump and door dash delivery fees.
I’m truly not interested in solely having a platform to express my opinions. Although, this is awesome I’m more interested in acknowledgment and solutions.
My focus moving forward when writing will be on addressing issues with acknowledgement and hopefully having conversations that foster result oriented change and growth with measurable growth.
Thanks for reading! Salt and light,
Nadrian 😂
