I agree it's extremely exhausting and, like you, I've been watching the degradation of this country for decades. Both my parents have passed, likely victims of a corrupt population control system masquerading as health care, from diseases for which I feel there were always known (by some) cures for, deliberately withheld from millions of individuals through the years. Financially I'm feeling the screws tighten like most people are. And the aging body is feeling the effects of time and likely deliberate assaults on our food, water, etc. And I'm saddened by the realization of the extent to which evil has encroached upon this world, by the breadth as well as depths of depravity being laid bare for us to witness.
That said, swamp dredging is messy business and, despite the losses and suffering, the injustices and various types of assaults being inflicted on good people here in the USA and across the world, I very much want this war to be waged the right way, to eradicate this evil for a thousand years. I'm reminded also of the fact that there remain human trafficking victims who are existing in a dystopian hell which many don't even want to think about. Our challenges, in contrast, while not to be trivialized in and of themselves, are ones that can be weathered with grit and determination in most cases. This is a war and, while we don't have buildings being blown up next to us or bullets flying through our windows, we are going to suffer losses.
You derive happiness from within and with that comes inner strength. Have you devoted as much time to contemplating all the good things in your life? If not, ask yourself why not. Your perspective is of ultimate importance in determining your level of happiness, inner peace and inner strength. Every single day I thank God, many times a day, for everything good in my life, for everything good from my past which has brought me to this point, for the beauty of His world as I step outside my home and for the beautiful spirit of good people across this globe.
In the past when feeling overwhelmed by challenges in my life, I've written them down, looked at them and said "No wonder why I'm feeling this way." Then I move on to step two and delineate the good things in my life. The balance is difficult but not impossible. You've done the first part. Why not devote some of your time to contemplating the good parts of your life?
Rather a long reply, but I wanted to add some encouragement for you as it seems like you need some. God bless, anon. Take a break if you need to.
