Remember When?

Remember when, we first met?

Remember when, we used to laugh?

Remember when, we bonded?

Remember when, we used to let …

The stories of our lives unfold,

And the silly minutia that was told?

Remember when we used to care

And we were so connected?

Remember when we hung on each other’s words?

And weren’t sofa king scared?

 

 

My heart is broken.

I cannot breathe

Not one more single breath.

 

My lungs are choking on gun-filled-smoke.

I don’t want to hear one more political joke.

 

If we don’t stop, now and here?

I believe the end is near.

 

But I cannot live with all of this fear.

 

————————————————————–

 

So yeah,

The world is legit FUCKED.

Actually, fucked.

Like never before.

Fucked.

FUCKED.

 

 

And I am NOT talking about the Election.

I am NOT talking about our President.

 

NO.

 

I am talking about the crazy shootings like: Florida & Vegas!

I am talking about the natural disasters like: the hurricanes, the earthquakes, and the out-of-control fires. Like, hello, even Mother Nature is pissed the fuck off.

I am talking about the celebrity Icons proving to be rapists. Bringing a necessary, yet, upsetting light – to the abuse perpetrated upon women – who’ve been too scared to speak.

I am talking about the whole state of our divided country.

We can’t even watch a goddamned football game without national outrage.

 

RIGHT OR WRONG?

I CAN’T GIVE A FUCK ANYMORE.

I JUST CAN’T.

 

Remember when the Kardashian’s & Charlie Sheen were all the rage on the news?

CAN WE GO BACK TO THAT?

BECAUSE THE UNIVERSE HAS GONE MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

A very dear friend of mine, posted on his FB Page:

“I miss the days when we took up our quills and blogged. For many of us, those were the times we formed deep and lasting connections. Also, the times when we revealed far too much about ourselves online.”

 

And yanno what?

I really miss those days.

I really need those days.

I NEED those days, to come back, again, and, soon.

Because now a days?

“Could the news BE any more: upsetting, terrifying, depressing, nerve-wracking, anxiety-producing, or horrifying? I think not. THINGS HAVE TO GET BETTER! They just have to! I cannot take much more! Dear, Lord! MAKE IT STOP!”

 

We’re all very busy.

We’re all very consumed.

But I would just like to reconnect to my ‘online’ LOVED ONES – the way we used to. Prolly cuz we ALL need it right now.

 

This is NOT a forum for political debate.

This is NOT a forum for devastating news.

This is NOT a forum to re-hash what our minds are already bludgeoned with, daily.

 

Instead, I would LIKE to go back to the good old days, when it wasn’t HORRIFING, to be on the Internet.

Instead, I am DYING to hear your stories of minutia!

Let’s talk about spiders & bridges! Or, let’s talk about our spouses & children? Or discuss your diet & exercise routines? Show me your photos? Or just complain about waiting in line for coffee.

FFS!!

WHO’S WITH ME??
