Every day of every year of all time, there have been tyrants, revolutions, plagues, drought & famine, bumper crops, streaks of good fortune, cruelty, kindness, and everything else. This pandemic — especially with some of the lax responses to it — will cause a lot of pain. The current administration has been cruel, corrupt, and incompetent. Though we have a lot of work to do to mitigate the effects of COVID-19, and we have a lot of work to do to mitigate the effects of the current maladministration, the sun will nevertheless come up tomorrow, and this world will carry on. I am extremely weary of it, but I wake up in the morning, confident that if I do my part, others will do theirs, and at some point the current crises will pass. There will be others in the future, but that is the story of our life. For now, I rest when I can’t take it any more, and then I saddle up again.
