I find the news stressful, but it is something that one must endure to find what's happening in life. Most we can do nothing about. It bring sadness to see the state of the world today. Nicely expressed ;-]
That is the way it feels these days. Did not think I could remain calm the eve before the apocalypse, but what's a human to do. Ahhh...maybe just enjoy a little time with my daughter and after a cocktail or two. Unflinching...great writing!
