..when I feel like I would rather be one of the newly awakened, rather than a tired old war-horse who's seen all this coming for years.
I'd love to have the old energy back, the zeal, the righteous anger.
These days I just want it to be over.
Is it just me? I'll keep going, because that's what we do, but the pep has gone out of me, I feel wrung out.
I've got a BIL who can't wake up. He's not libtarded but is too stubborn/clueless to believe or even consider anything that isn't on Fox News. I don't even try to convince him of habbenings anymore. When he starts bloviating about the latest thing, I just sit quietly or leave the room. When everything goes down, he'll think he was on top of it the whole time. Bless his heart.
