Back again

Hi all. I am back. :)

Spent a few wonderful days out in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Can't wait to go back.

Meanwhile, the US seems to have ventured down a very dark path and my heart has been heavy thinking about it and wondering where we go from here. The spitting war with North Korea went nowhere, but not before alarming the entire world. Charlottesville was a disaster and the President's words on it (both times) were a huge embarrassment and wake-up call for this country. There is no doubt now that Trump is a Nazi sympathizer. How did we get here?

Then yesterday, Barcelona was attacked and it seems the world is just getting crazier and crazier by the day. Trying to wean myself off the news cycle but battling myself on how I can do that without being ignorant to all the things happening in the world. I had a discussion lately with somebody who just was not interested in world events and I just couldn't relate. This world is our place. How can you only be concerned about what is only 10 feet in front of you?

Anyway, my head is just spinning with all sorts of thoughts lately. Feeling hopeless when you can't help everyone you want. I know it's impossible, but hard to shake that feeling of not having enough hands to lend.
