Are you feeling tired and overwhelmed?

I’m confused by the common use of the term haters. Do those who call people haters, hate the haters? Hate, like love, is an internal emotion that only the owner of the emotion knows for sure, unless they tell you. More violent crimes are committed against women as a group than any other group, and the perpetrators are usually men. Are these men haters? Are men who discriminate against women in pay and promotions haters? Are those who produce violent porn against women haters?
 

It seems its not just us oldsters... the young people are stressed at earlier ages. I can't remember having to worry about what college would accept me when I was in the 8th grade! So many seem to be unhappy and so "searching." I have 2 grand daughters that live 1500 miles away that always want to visit just to be around us...to feel the release of all the pressure I'm sure.

Lets face it, we are survivors! I for one have vowed not just to be good but to be good for something until I hit the other side. The best way to help yourself is to help someone or something else.
Go boomers go!
 

For myself I've noticed that I became more angry during the last 3 years. Our government which adopted the Gates' PLANdemic, called Covid-19, with all of it's restrictions, the lonely deaths of seniors in retirement homes, the mask mandates, the torture of the children at school, all of them highly criminal, with so many deaths after the shots, especially in younger people, got me angry. I am somehow tired but not in the least depressed.

I know there are some really loud haters and crazies, but, in my own experiences in the past several years, people I've been around at work and then while traveling, and now in this retirement community, all these people seem to be much more tolerant and respectful of differences

My experience has been the same as yours in that I’ve never been around anyone who expressed hate for a group so I wonder who the haters are? You say you know they are out there and I’m wondering where they are? We all know about the crimes committed against women and men and all people. Are the criminals the haters?

Maybe, it's me. It seems there are a lot of sad, down posts, lately. I'm a child of the 60s-freelove, challenge authority, we can change the world, all that stuff. It seems that some of us don't feel that's possible anymore. I think some feel overwhelmed and worn out. How do you feel?

Well, sad posts, sorry! Going through two important losses with 5 years, both unexpected and so sudden.

I'm on the year of the decade. Everything is still possible. Granted, I was overwhelmed, more I'd say totally shocked. I hadn't time to recover from son's lost and then blam, hubby out of the blue.

I've better days now that the most important things on the to-do list have been dealt with. DONE! Nevertheless, there's more to face, every day will have it's own challenges. Otherwise, will take them one day at a time and deal with it with the same aplomb and resolution where we dealt with the others.

We're slowly but surely, creeping towards full acceptance, another year after April 2023 and we'll be in this new lifestyle were days are going to be a whole new ballgame.

Regardless, good days are in the near future... Sorry that's a sad one again but we're filled with resilience and determination to push forward🐱

Not really. It's just the ebb and flow of life....good days and bad. Winter exasperates the situation but there's light at the end of the tunnel. It's 60 outside now in February and I'm goin' fishin'!
