Things have not been great for me lately. Life has felt heavy and dark, for various reasons. I am sick and tired of the cruelty, the nastiness, the self-righteous intolerance, and the hypocrisy of so many people. I am sick of being condemned as “cruel” and “un-American,” by the very same people who have spent the past five years unleashing an avalanche of shocking cruelty. I am sick of pompous lectures about the importance of diversity and inclusion by the very same people who have waged a merciless campaign to obliterate all diversity from the earth and to ensure that people who are different from the norm cannot feel included anywhere. I’m sick of words being used to mean the opposite of what they actually mean. I’m sick of people brutally attacking those who have done nothing wrong and then calling their victims cruel. I am sick of it, and it is taking a heavy toll on my mental health.
But I’m not making this post to write about all of the things I’m sick of (although I’ve ended up writing quite a long paragraph about this topic). I’m making this post to draw attention to a few things that have brought a smile to my face in these dark times. Hopefully these things will bring a smile to your face as well:
