Day 109
I sit here listening to the large construction project next door. The earth movers are back. I think the siding is up on most of the buildings. Maybe this is a sign that they are getting close to the end.
The covid numbers keep going up in my state and all over the country. There is a solution, but a large group of people are ignorantly fighting the solution.
"I'm being anti-racist." "I want to apologize for my past." "They should be fired." "It is a diversion!" The BLM movement online is filled with arguements and statements that many cannot agree on. I think it is a process. A messy process, because it is an explosive movement, just like me too/time's up.
Anyway, wasn't it Black voices we white people should be lifting up? And here we are fighting amongst ourselves.
I am deciding to be less vocal. I try to speak what I believe is reasonable and I usually am ignored and at worst called names. Not to say there is not some support and agreement, however... It is better to speak with actions and, to listen.
So, I am taking a twitter break. More time for processing news, listening, reading, exercise, volunteering and other things.
