trudging through uncertainty

I hate how everyone is just going about their days like the world, as it affects us (let's be honest that's all each of us is truly concerned with), is changing so rapidly in ways we thought we were impossible within the infrastructure of our government. This is all the evidence anyone who's still in denial needs. Money buys everything. I don't see a way to be content. The protections are being eliminated. They were illusions from the beginning, but I enjoyed pretending to believe the constitution meant something. If what you own is more valuable than your time left on this plane, you will be moved out of the way by whatever means is most convenient or sends a message to the masses. I wanted to just lie low, have a regular job, take one big vacation a year, make stained glass art and do the family things. Under the radar. A no one amongst a mass of nobodies. Peaceful. So... where's the peace? There's mostly just anxiety. 

Who knows? This may just be the catalyst we need do something long overdue. However, I fear the divisiveness to which my countrymen seem so committed. How can we create something new with old beliefs and habits? We cannot.
