Realistic optimism...




I am tired by my very positive belief in humanity being so challenged lately. I have no solution for this, beside striving to be positive. The struggle is that while I believe good will prevail in the long run, many I care for now will not. But you 'soldier on' (which is a bad metaphor used by me) and try to see the long-term gains.

I really struggle with the situation in U.S.A today. The world and Americans deserve so much better. I know what brought us here, and that is what disappoints me so much. Trump as an American president was initially just a crazy media stunt idea, him being president is now documented to be pure insanity.

But I am still an optimist, living in a country shielded from most of the challenges most humans have. 

Most on this pale blue dot would probably call me naïve….
