If you can handle the aches and pains. They are at least manageable, compared to those externals plaguing us daily. My wife teaches Yoga and practices a few hours a day for herself. Even she deals with real pains here and there. But then, she is young, only 71. The news of the world hurts her more than the internals too. I guess I'm just used to it. Quiet walks help.
I am also getting to really appreciate the commenting followers of the Substacks I follow. It is heartening to know that there are a lot of smart good folks out there. Lots of them. It helps to put my mind at ease.
It truly is. When Heather switched to it some years ago now, it became my first. Looking at commenter's follows, many other good ones popped up. (like yours)
Yours was my experience also RR. First Heather then her commenters led me to Robert Hubbell, Joyce Vance and TC. Each fills a gap and expands my understanding of these terrible times. Substack is fantastic.
I am lucky, not too many personal trials at present. Tai Chi and a Unitarian community help. Worried about my grands, but they have good sense, just innocents in a dog eat dog world.
Yes, news of the world hurts, how can it not. I remember Idi Amin, Pol pot, Uganda, Serajivo, on and on. The past was bad enough, but present day pain and suffering, and so many blind to it, is sometimes hard on old тАЬgolden ruleтАЭ types.
Being old is a blessing sometimes

The overall quality of Substack, compared with other social networks, is really amazing.
