1. My blood ran cold too.

I look around at my friends and neighbors who I see and talk to daily and every one of them acknowledges that none of what’s going on is okay...but they like I have to get the kids to school, go to work, make dinner, do homework, flip a load of laundry and get up and do it again...and it’s all going down the toilet while we’re just trying to keep up. Maybe the fascists are counting on my distraction with the mundane. I’m not religious but have my own connection to the Universe...I’m asking for help, wisdom and guidance. I’m afraid.
