Be Well My Darling

My neighbor told me that talking about politics with her family (divided) makes her stomach hurt

I don't talk much about politics

Reading about politics makes my head spin*

I live in the micro but try to understand the macro

Big picture thinking

Little picture living

I do not understand much

So I just keep on living

Where is the joy?

When the micro and the macro unify

into peace

in my mind

Then, I am well
