 I started this blog to help people but I do not think that I am really helping anyone. No one is reading the blog and most of the time I have no idea what to write about, None of it seems that valuable.

Today was not a successful day and I need to admit that. It was not successful because I did not get anything done not only on my to-do list but on my daily habits list. It all just feels so overwhelming.

I am also stuck because there are so many things that I want to write about but I think it will just be a waste of time. The reason I think it will be a waste of time, is I just do not think it will “move the ball down the field”. What I mean about that is I do not think it will help anything or improve anything. It will not bring people together. That is my goal, not just to complain and be a jerk.

Here are the things I am thinking about.

Diversity is also having people in your life that do not think like you or believe in the same things as you do. It does not seem that some people understand this concept.

Just because you do not like something, does not mean it is wrong or that people are allowed to say it. Even if you think it is stupid, that does not give you the right to tell people they cannot say anything about it. It is not free speech if you only allow people to say what you agree with.

Justice Breyer. Justice Stephen Breyer announced his retirement from The Supreme Court and I am already dreading what some people will say about him. It is just going to be the opposite of what Justice Scalia passed away but from the other side. It is amazing how many people can claim to be friends of Justice Scalia, Justice Breyer, or Justice Ginsburg and say such nasty things about the other side. DO SOME RESEARCH. All three got along and respected one another. They all had a process and belief system they followed. You may not agree with them all the time but they did have a process.

In 2020 there was a lot of talk about people urging everyone to think differently, to consider other people when they voted, and to be more open-minded and accepting. That all seems to have gone in the garbage now. The same people who wanted everyone else to be open and understanding are now the ones judging everyone else and not accepting anyone who disagrees with them.

It all feels like so much and I am tired of it all.
