Living in the capitol of the most influential state of the most influential country freaks me out.
As things seem to be continually growing worse in the world and desperation seems commanplace, I fear the worst. Explosions here on our soil that not only kill many, but leave the rest of us to endure the slow body-invading effects.

I have just begun to live.

Living in the US, our dreams are only occasionally interrupted by natural or unnatural disasters. We have the priveledge of enjoying our precious "long term" goals. And I have many.

I pray, I beg.........that I am able to continue dreaming without interuption. For in this dreaming I am blessed.
