Sometimes I just can’t believe what is happening.

We will try to keep positive thoughts and say things that make you smile or have hope as we are aware that too much truth about what is happening to our society ia overwhelming and too often depressing.
But children dragged from their beds in the middle of the night and sent into the streets, often without clothes, is too much to overlook.
And it is happening.
Nelson Mandela said that “There can be no keener revelation of a society’s soul than the way in which it treats its children.” Someting to think about.
If only the world were run by kitties. Okay, and doggies too.
The moon was so beautiful last night…the Harvest Moon, 10% closer to earth and cosying up to Saturn…things up here are pretty amazing!

Loulou, most times I can’t believe what is happening.
It’s very hard to wrap one’s head around it. Most of the time mama cannot find words for her feelings about this very dangerous happening in the USA!!!
The kitties and puppies are much smarter!

Are they ever…
Nelson Mandela taught us so much, Loulou. What a wonderful shot of the Harvest moon.
Wasn’t he amazing? Such courage, such empathy, such kindness. There are those, unfortunately do do not give a fathing for others, for kindness, for empathy, for working together to achieve goals, who care ONLY for themselves and their egos.
I’d rather watch the sky than the news.
Oh, we would love that also and really, we try to do that but sometimes it’s just too important for us to know what the idiot is doing next and be prepared.
I live in Portland. We are living under an escalating threat from the government. LouLou, your posts help us feel heard. Good kitty!
Oh, Mollie, we are so, so sorry for what is happening to your marvelous city, but the Supreme Court DID prohibit the national guard from dirtying your city and terrorizing inhabitants. Slowly but surely, we feel that the three very powerful humans behind Trump’s election and antics are getting a little worried about his state of mind and just might like to see changes…….
You can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals. -Immanuwl Kant
ABSOLUTELY. How about just ‘treatment of others’? We are o the animal world too….
Sonds like the holocaust, sadly. XO
It is very similar and we must keep our wits about us. Fortunately you live in a place that is fairly apart and safe.
This country is crazy.

And unfortunately to realize, we let it happen…Kamala was not going to win and Biden should have made way for a powerful new candidate to run.
