Another year another Blog for peace.
We keep at it,
those of us who care.
We keep writing,
commenting,
confronting hate and racism when needed.
Seems to be needed a lot these days.
The socials are rife with anti semitism,
misogyny,
racism.
It's a fine balancing act,
not to respond in kind.
Not to call names,
not to hate the person instead of the opinion.
It's exhausting.
I slip sometimes,
lean too far left,
pitch right a little.
Sometines I even lose my balance completely,
I rage,
I hate,
I comment.
It's exhausting,
is it working?
I dunno.
Sometimes I'm hopeful.
Sometimes...
Oh boy.. yes. spot on! It's exhausting at times. We try and keep on trying. <3
ReplyDeleteIt gets harder to hold onto hope. Yet we cant live without it. So glad you added your voice to the blogblast for peace.
ReplyDeletePeace begins with a smile. I send you one! Purrs Marv
ReplyDeleteWe keep going because there is no alternative. Many peace bloggers feel the same way this year. Exhaustion is am apt title. Why do I have hope? Because of people like you.
ReplyDeletePeace to you and yours, Mimi
