25. Most definitely worry about the future.

With good reason as far as I’m concerned. Anyone who isn’t worried isn’t paying attention. I admire people who have positive attitudes, but those who have to disparage people who dare say anything negative are unrealistic in my view.

Our country is in the middle of an internal struggle for the life of the democracy. Our very Capitol was attacked. We are still in the middle of a pandemic.

We should all be worried.
