I have been off work since the afternoon of 7/16/15, and except for the post about Sake, I have not written anything. Frankly, I have had a writer's block. I do not want to write about why I am on leave from work, suffice it to say that I am on leave for no bad reason, and I will not write about that. I have always felt some things are too personal to blog about.
I just cannot get myself to write. Part of the problem is that while I follow the news every day, and I am appalled at the violence, hate, disaster and crime I see, I cannot force myself to comment on it. I am appalled by the political antics of the Republican party, and not much encouraged by the front runner in the Presidential race of the Democratic party, but I think I can support Bernie Sanders https://berniesanders.com/. But, I am not yet sure.
The news of the world is too distressing to comment on. The natural disasters of the United States are overwhelming. The political unrest in the Middle East is disheartening. The economic problems of the European Union https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Union are disenchanting. There is more bad news than good in the world, it seems, sometimes.
I am not trying to be negative. Indeed, I wish I had good news to share.
But, my goal tonight is to post something, in an effort to break my writer's block, so maybe tomorrow, I can post something of value.
