I woke up refreshed on this New Year’s Day, ready to return to this blog. I took time off directly after the US election because my disappointment and disgust in people stopped me from having anything worthwhile to say. I’ve been off social media since then as well, and it has been glorious. But that’s all in the past.
One year ago, when 2024 came upon us, I was filled with dread for what was to come. My mom was very sick, and the president seemed so unsteady as well. He didn’t seem to be taking the nightmare lurking in Florida serious enough. I sensed doom all around.
Sure enough, my Mom was dead within weeks and that lying pig in Florida was not going away, but only lurking louder. Then in November, enough people willingly voted for him, (just over half) so he could take advantage of all of us.
Well, it’s done. He is allowed to do his worse now. But I’m not phased anymore. In fact, I hope he does what half of us feared he would if he could. It will most drastically hurt the dopes that carelessly and foolishly swallow the swill he serves anyway, and they deserve the nightmare they’re about to live.
The nightmare we tried to prevent. The nightmare I dreaded last New Year’s Day waking up to an election year.
This New Year’s I’m ready to look down my nose at the world on fire. You can’t dread something you’re in the middle of. You just live it. I’m ready to live it.
That’s another refreshing thing about today. For the whole year of 2024, I thought I would want to end my life if things went south. Shockingly (to me) I don’t feel so low anymore. Disgust feels stronger than despair.
And even though I’m fine going at any time– I’m good with God– I’m not gonna speed things up on my own. The morons in this world are not worth throwing my life away for.
God wants me here to watch the show. So, I’ll watch the show. Hopefully I’ll find my way back to optimism along the way.
Yes, I have hope again, for 2025.
Like a Fox!
