It is our Light, not our Darkness, that most frightens us.
That line is from A Return to Love by Marianne Williamson. I'm not sure if I believe it though. I am so afraid for us more and more every day. With the failing economy and deficits and budget cuts and high unemployment rates my anxiety has been off the charts. I cannot even focus on my little day to day dramas because they're so insignificant in comparison. I worry about my Mom, a teacher, losing her job. I worry about the amount of time it's going to take for me to even get a call back about a job. Does the rest of the country realize what shitty times were in? I feel like people would be panicking more if they understood the dollars amounts they hear every day. Maybe they haven't even heard the dollar amounts being thrown around. The insane part is most of the numbers you hear are approximate! I'm so sick of hearing about this AIG nonsense. Don't even get me started on the news and their reporting of everything. I need to smoke a joint now.
