I finally hit the wall today.
I can't think of what to say about all of the madness going on in this country right now.
I'm a writer with no words to properly describe the current chaos.
The growing conviction that we're in the end times for our constitutional democracy and the republic we created 249 years ago, is hardening into a reality as the MAGA cult keeps expanding.
The journalist in me wants to document these terrible times but the Vietnam veteran with PTSD is telling me to back off for a while to stave off depression so deep I might never recover.
This is a personal decision made out of necessity. I'm not giving up on America, but I have to distance myself the next six months until we know who wins the election.
I wish I could just write about other things, but I'm too overwhelmed by the grave situation we're all in to do a decent job.
In over 20 years of publishing this blog I've taken breaks before for a variety of reasons, but none as long as this one will be.
As it Stands, I hope you understand, my dear readers, that I do intend to come back this winter. God willing.

This seems to make sense to put it on hold until after the elections for a president. These are the moments when it is important to maintain physical and explain the importance of ensuring that others are aware of own whereabouts especially given all that is happening in the world. Ideally, more discussions once things are back to normal so that we can establish some form of understanding.
