Gun violence in Minneapolis has erupted in 48 hours 22 people were shot and 2 people died from their wounds. Police trying to give aid were pelted with objects.
This is beyond my understanding – mass shootings into cafe crowds, seventeen-year old teen shot and shoved out of a car and that was just the beginning. Pull on one thread and everything slowly unravels. Someone said that before.

I read that “people” are moving out of the city to the country. No surprise there for me because even before all the protests and tragedy in Minneapolis and the rest of the country began, there was a longing in me to leave the crowded city for a more restful place.
A decay has set in from within our society. “The Late Great United States” is what I am observing around me. Looking within myself, I recognize that my patience is worn thin from the turmoil and divisiveness that is swirling around this country.

Pull on one thread and a whole lot unravels. How true is that? This undercurrent of discontent and fear seems from my end of the world to have been brewing for some time. I do hope it settles soon. You sound pessimistic about the prospects of resolution. Stay safe.
Thanks! Politics play out very slowly. Always keep a good attitude is the way I look at it. “Keep on keepin’ on”. Stay safe too.
I’ve been thinking of you with all the issues in Minneapolis. Unbelievable to think 111 people have been shot in one city in about one month. Stay safe.
Thank you, Peggy. I think of you too. It’s volatile times. I’m not giving up. There are so many good people in the community speaking and working for peace.
I’m good here. Staying at home.
I relieved for you. A little bit.
Looking forward to your posts returning.
