nothing changed today
.
here
in my little world
routine
happened, on schedule, no surprises
it’s easy to ignore the rest of the world
the news
when my day progressed as planned
should I really be concerned
today was fine
I’m fine, everything is fine

There’s an old fable about a boiling frog. If you put a frog in a pot of boiling water, it will jump out. But if you put a frog in a pot of cold water, and slowly turn up the heat the frog will stay in the pot until it boils to death.
I spend most of my days trying to live in the present. When the end of the day comes, if I am still safe, free to walk outside, to go shopping, free of communicable disease, still married, and not actively being targeted by some militia, I consider that to be a good day. Granted, some days are more challenging than others…with the usual stuff…but that’s life. I’m accustomed to overcoming obstacles.
But when I take in a bit of news, I wonder, should I be doing something. And if I should, what should I do when the powers that be seem to be barreling nonstop toward an end that doesn’t look good for me and many others. Should I be worried? Already thousands of my neighbors in this country have felt the sting of their bite. By living in the present, inside my safe bubble, am I just denying the inevitable. Will someone close to me, or will I be next to fall victim to their unjust sweep in the name of making their world great again? Am I a frog in a pot of slowly boiling water?
Just thinking out loud. I had to sleep on this one. My days are bleeding into one another. But I’m still here, paying attention, looking for glimmers. A group of doe with their yearlings came by last evening…there was peace on my little hill for a moment…for several moments…for now…✨💚✨
Much Love, peace and glimmers to you…

That’s the scary part. We have seen this before and we know how it ends. Not good 😟

Love the pictures of the deer Kat.
I’ve heard about the frog too, and now mindless Sheeple who follow regardless because they can’t think for themselves. Hubby read some article the other day where they are intending to ban COWS by 2030.
Where will we get milk or beef? I haven’t seen anything on that, but some of the financial stuff I’m reading is pretty scary. Food prices are on the rise again and I am leaving more and more on the shelf. Toast and marmalade for tea is not just a song now.
Keep safe Kat. We all have to look out for ourselves now.

Wow! Ban cows? Though I heard there is a plan here to kill the wild horses because it’s too expensive to maintain wild land for them…( maybe that wild land is prime real estate to someone? Just guessing) you take care as well. This is crazy stuff!
