There is no doubt that 2022 has not been the best of years for the world in general! For us personally it was the best of years with the birth of our granddaughter Hannah and yesterday we enjoyed her first Xmas She really is the best present we could ever get!
Wouldn’t it be nice if we could finally get rid of all these nasty petty pathetic men who seem to continue to ruin our lives and believe they are right! In no particular order if Putin, Trump, Farage, Johnston, Rees-Mogg, most if not all Tory ministers, any other dictators, the Taliban, Chinese Communist Party, North Korea and so many more the world would be an infinitely better place! It has to be accepted that we cannot solve the many problems that beset our country let alone the world but surely there must be agreement that at the very least we don’t make it worse? I am not optimistic about our future and fear for the future of my children and especially my granddaughter? The heady optimism of my generation seems to have dissipated and burst like the dream it was. We have conspired to make the world a shadow of the place it could be. We have made enormous progress particularly with technology but as a human race I fear we have regressed. I am not expecting joy and peace for everybody but neither did I expect this creeping sickness of fascism and the continuation of racist behaviour and such extreme views!
I am sick of being labelled weak or too liberal, a lefty leaning moaner because I don’t share the views of the capitalist society that sets up profit and the acquisition of money as it’s only goal! I am not altruistic I understand only to well that we have to have some form of renumeration in order to live in our modern world. I am more than aware that equality is unachievable, that there will always be the haves and the have less! I accept that there are many good people who do their best to make the world and peoples lives better, it feels like it but al is not doom and gloom!
This is no Christmas message , as you all no I abhor religion and all that it stands for but I would like some balance brought to the world!
Stay well
