As for my country. I move through time and space conducting my usual affairs of the day/week. I come across many folks that have their wits about them and their house affairs in order (across a spectrum of generations).
I also make note of the sheep that are waiting to be herded.
The former have few words and busy with life walking the walk.
The loud ones are usually the sheep and they don't even know it.
The worst is not behind us yet. But I am optimistic.
I'm also quite optimistic. I read that many people bought a lot of guns over thanksgiving weekend. 😄 That's a bloody good sign.
Yes, I've seen that first hand at the club I go to.
But not only that, a lot more parents are home schooling, more neighbors are growing their own food and going without TV programing.
These are all positive signs to be optimistic about. I think the COVID shut downs got folks off that hamster wheel long enough to clear their thinking.
