Thank you for sharing this. I’m sitting here reading it with coffee on a quiet Saturday in Mexico! So many people have this sense that “something isn’t right”. I have been wanting to explore it in a post of my own but have been procrastinating. How to write about this intuitive sense I’m having - that many of us are having - without “sounding paranoid”? That’s my fear. But reading your post gives me courage to cover this topic myself, so I will.

Thanks for the positive feedback, trust me, it's really appreciated:) I think I've only scratched the surface with this post and there's a lot more that needs to be dealt with. The more writers there are working away at trying to figure out what's going on and why we're on the trajectory we're on, the more chance we have of getting people to take action. I'll look forward to reading your thoughts...

In the 60s and 70s, you had civic groups that tried to help those affected by world war II. In some small part, the government was neutral, and you had churches to fall back on.

Post covid, the schools are trying to kill your children by scaring them to death, if not flat-out transitioning them into androgynous beings. You also have the government falling onto the rainbow brigade's side, and your churches are also falling apart.

The institutions that we depended on have all turned against us. Leaving us trapped and feeling alone.

It's no wonder people feel they have nothing to live for.

All sense of community is gone.

There is NO normal, either new or old, there is just life. We spend an inordinate amount of time trying to figure out what is normal and what isn't which means we are focused on the past...it is long dead and gone.
