My struggle is to find inner peace without it being contingent upon resolution of affairs in the outer world. I cannot say that I am doing well at this quest right now. The waiting is stealing away my peace, and every attempt to reengage with the world churns up my feelings again. And it will pass; just someday we all pass, too, and there is no more time to find our peace.
At some point I was forced to accept that there is a possibility we are on our own. No q, no white hats, no military. Just people. So we push on. We have suffered greatly and are financially destroyed and it doesn't help that we are older and our life "winter" is here. However, we are healthy and have each other, and know others have suffered much worse and many have lost loved ones in unconscionable conditions. I will put one foot in front of the other pushing forward until a threat is at my door in which case I will fight willing to die to protect my family and our freedom. I pray for you and all people to have peace and comfort. 🙏
