I'll scan headlines of the NY Times and the LA Times on my computer, so I feel relatively abreast (with Facebook highlights, of course), but what I see is generally so abysmal (both content and the way it's presented) that I turn away. No to the 24/7. Yes to the love. And have I ever told you that Beloved is one of my favorite novels of all time? I read it when it came out and a few times after that, but I haven't thought about it in a long time. The quote is perfect, and I think I should pick it up and read it again.

I tell him over and over to not tell me about it but he can't help it. It makes me angry but mostly just betrayed. <br />I really get being misunderstood. And I don't think it is an issue of feeling sorry for yourself. Everyone wants to be understood and accepted.<br /> Are you a Highly Sensitive Person http://hsperson.com/test/highly-sensitive-test/ Birdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03479872783727855901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-36083115450299325282016-06-22T23:15:16.206-04:002016-06-22T23:15:16.206-04:00I am going to bed...Some days that is all one can ...I am going to bed...Some days that is all one can do!ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376645220662546020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-12246700917776398372016-06-22T22:55:03.833-04:002016-06-22T22:55:03.833-04:00"May love multiply" - yes.

We can make things better for those close to us. And that will make love multiply.jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-87256964630496951552016-06-22T20:45:26.578-04:002016-06-22T20:45:26.578-04:00Thank you for this timely reminder that what one f...Thank you for this timely reminder that what one focuses on multiplies. I needed that reminder, having been attacked on Fakebook by a member of a neo-Nazi hate group called Soldiers of Odin and threatened, then having to spend the day gathering screenshots of his venom and making reports to police. I feel bathed in crazy and bile. I would guess that this is who votes for Trump.<br /><br />Sigh. I hardly even go on Fakebook. Breathing in, I breathe in calm. Breathing out, I smile.<br /><br />-invisigalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-53097086002087805812016-06-22T19:16:43.161-04:002016-06-22T19:16:43.161-04:00May love multiply <3May love multiply <3HBFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10338445335742876196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9107151958453669111.post-7238422919941120632016-06-22T17:33:18.925-04:002016-06-22T17:33:18.925-04:00hopefully the political catastrophe can be averted...hopefully the political catastrophe can be averted some how...

It is frightening to think that he could be the leader of USA . What are your countrymen thinking of to have got him so far by voting for him. I have no idea if Hilary would be a better bet, but like this country of mine ( UK) I don't think we any more have the leaders that we used to. They are all out for themselves not their countries. Forgive me if I am not coming across with exactly what I mean, but I despair about our leaders, and potential leaders these days.
