It's not a perfect life and this isn't heaven.
What we worry about:
A nuclear world war breaking out.
Running out of toilet paper.
Trump being re-elected president.
Failure.
Fascism overturning our democracy.
The climate crisis facing the planet.
Looking foolish.
Daily mass shootings.
Getting mugged or carjacked.
The price of gas.
The economy in general.
Interest rates going up.
Grifters.
Lies and toxic misinformation being spread on social media platforms.
Health insurance.
Losing our freedom.
Bad weather.
Our favorite sports team losing.
Efforts to ban books in our schools and public libraries.
The list is endless.
You know what I think? The worst thing that could happen to us is to lose hope.
As it stands, "When you have lost hope, you have lost everything. And when you think all is lost, when all is dire and bleak, there is always hope." - Pittacus Lore
