Words of wisdom and compassion, Rob. I hope that this year, there will be more kindness and less divisiveness.

Thanks Anna! Me too. I'm ashamed to admit that I've been part of the problem. Not necessarily in public, but in my own thoughts and opinions. Even though many of my thoughts and opinions *may* be right, I must be willing to look at things in different ways at times. Thank you again for reading. It means a lot. :)

I’ve been the same way: judging others and privately condemning them. Wishing you all the best for 2025. I look forward to reading more from you!

This story is reflected all over the world, I expect. Certainly here in the UK I have nothing but compassion for those trusting souls who believe everything the National Health Service and the BBC tell them. God rest their souls.

We all see the world through our own eyes but the mass brain washing is evident for those who can see.

It is frustrating to see our country being dismantled before our very eyes. People know something is wrong and scapegoats and excuses are provided to disguise 'The Great Reset' that is only great if you are part of the power structure behind it.

They are breaking down the old and human bodies and minds to lead us into their metaverse.

Frustration is a great word here. I've had a feeling of frustration and anger for 5 years now. To look around and see there are this many people who truly believe that by destroying *good* in the word is somehow going to bring about a kind of utopia is mind boggling, to say the least. Unfortunately, there are poor souls out there who are in the dark and don't want to be in the dark but they (IMO) don't know anything but that darkness because it's all they see. There's very little light, truth, kindness, or compassion from people. It may just be because I truly believe I grew up in a time where the majority actually were kind people? I don't know. But I most certainly don't look around anymore and see love on the faces of others. I see nothing but selfishness, sternness, and unhappiness (unless they are getting something they want!). Yet these same people go along with everything going on. It's a confusing thing... this discernment... this ability to look around and see a bigger picture. I often wonder why I'm able to do this and, at times, wish I couldn't see it all and be like everyone else. But then I realize what a blessing it is to be able to *see* the real enemy and what their nefarious plans will bring. How else do we fight for ourselves and our loved ones if we don't know the true face of our enemy? Anyway, I hope my reply makes sense. I really appreciate you adding to the banter. Thank you for checking out my post. :)
