Careless words, I apologize

Unsolicited advice, so wrong

Thoughts out loud, no more

*Everyday, everybody makes judgement calls. We censor our partners, peers, relatives, friends, frenemies, coworkers, and most reality TV stars.

Anyone’s thoughts and actions are fair game.

Why can’t he/she/they/you acknowledge that this is absolutely the best way to proceed?

Just do it this way…

Negativity is ingrained in our society, certainly there’s a bombastic feel to each day.

However, it’s so easy to blame the always-in-your-face state of current politics, economic confusion, or the coronavirus.

And no one can deny these factors do contribute to a pervasive uneasiness.

Thing is, if we ever want to recover from these four years, we must change ourselves.

I’m trying to be better. Smile more. Criticize less. Accept realities.
