Granted, this isn’t always easy. And I don’t know if this applies to (for example) the political situation and society in the US. I can’t relate to that too much. I mean there is so much populism and I don’t know what I’d do if half of my neighbors were in the mindset to vote for right-wing a-holes, there were hundreds of school shootings each year, my medication was unaffordable to me and women’s reproductive rights were cancelled. I mean you can’t really ‘avoid’ that. I don’t want to bash the USA but it’s somewhat beyond my own reality. I struggle with other things in my life. But all of that isn’t my achievement. I was simply born someplace else.

All that are things I can't do anything about. so I don't let it occupy my mind. I'm fortunate to be in good health but if that were to change I'd deal with it as best I can. Nothing I can do to make it cheaper. I vote for whatever good that does but outside election time I focus on things I can actually do.
