The tendency to “just write things off” is a bad habit of mine. Especially if I can’t influence, understand, or control them. Things like:
- Global warming – Temperature reached 65 degree Fahrenheit today. A whopping 20 degrees warmer than normal season average for this area.
- Iowa Caucuses – ” First in the Nation” and 1,600-plus precinct caucuses?! What are they thinking? Nuff said
- Rush Limbaugh & the Presidential Medal of Freedom – the nation’s highest civilian honor? For real?
- Trump’s state of union – Don’t ask; I am boycotting it
And the list goes on.
Yes, I know well the Teddy Roosevelt’s “The Man In The Arena” quote, but at times I need to take a break from beating my head against the wall. Seems nothing changes except my head hurts.
Do you think the world is full of anomalies?
Sometimes, I think that I’m living in the Twilight Zone for more reasons than one.
