Todays word from Susie: Smellfungus. A grumbler, a faultfinder, someone who likes to shift blame on someone else. Remind you of anyone?
Do you get the feeling of helplessness each day when you read the news? Do you get think the world is spinning out of control and none of us are able to do anything about it?
For a very long time now a “fact” is muted one day and then apparently totally contradicted the next! So many opinions from so called experts or those whom we supposedly trust, that we have no idea what is and isn’t right. We no longer trust or believe even the evidence of our own eyes.
As Wendy has just read out, we are in a Kafka esk world where rules are set, we follow them and then they are changed because either they didn’t work or it no longer suits those who set them. It’s no wonder we are confused. Who tells the truth? Sifting through all the talk and double talk is like wading through a swamp with no clue how to get out of it!
You can understand why many just stop bothering to engage and ignore it all. I’ve tried really hard to disengage but I just can’t. I can manage for a few days but eventually I am drawn back into the daily madness of the world’s story, however distorted it is.
I don’t about you but I struggle to understand why some things are dealt with and others ignored. Perhaps I am naive but to me so much of what we fail to address appears to be relatively simple to resolve we just don't seem to have the will to do it. I know there is only so much money (although you wouldn’t think with this government) but when so much of it is wasted or given to those who don’t deserve it or need it, you do wonder! If some of the layers and layers of bureaucracy could be removed and we got back to dealing on a human related basis things could be much simpler.
Now we have the whole gamut of Social Media where everybody and anyone can have an opinion and throw in their two pennies worth. Once again I am aware of the irony of writing that sentence in a blog!
Then again what would I have to moan about each day!
Stay well
