I really hope next year is better or maybe even the end of this year could be better.

Sometimes I wonder if all the bad stuff that's going on is making a lot of people less and less able to talk about certain topics. (Like how the discrimination and racism and sexism and  genocide are bad things for humans to endure, and we should be getting more healed or doing more to not allow those things to happen.) 

We should be doing more, but then again, if you're drained of energy or if you have medical issues, you need to address your medical problems or stay home and rest and take care of yourself. Or maybe you need to go to a park and love nature. Or you need to have fun in some way.

But it's been difficult, and it seems like the longer the bad stuff goes on, the less some people seem able to talk about it. And then I start to feel as if when people keep pretending things are fine, it is just going to kill off people who deserved much better. This is a very dreadful feeling. 

I want to release it because I know there are still good things going on. I know there is nature. I mean, my cat doesn't know what's going on. She seems really happy a lot of the time. I feel like I need to attend grieving ceremonies on a regular basis or something. Smile and pretend things are fine doesn't work for this kind of grief.

I mean, I guess some people are just lucky to be able to feel more unburdened or whatever, but I've had my better and more unburdened moments too. Maybe I need to pray.
