@StillIRise1963 I appreciate that, my friend. I hope that doesn't come off like moaning or "Hey look at me" That last article you posted just put me over the top. The sad part is I had stayed off here a couple of days, hoping to re-energize. I'll be off for a bit, I really feel like I don't have the energy to contribute at the moment. Thanks for what you do and your support. Keep giving them hell. I've got a full weekend of delivering holiday meals and need to be positive for others.

@StillIRise1963 Today, I feel exhausted and overwhelmed. It's difficult to imagine how others manage to maintain their mental well-being amidst challenging circumstances. While I recognize my privilege and strive to support and uplift those facing discrimination, sometimes the weight of it all becomes too heavy to bear. I truly admire those who continue to persevere in the face of adversity. The assault is so constant and so total it seems overwhelming.
