“The world is too much with us…” ~ William Wordsworth

My heart is in my throat as I watch the latest on Afghanistan on TV – helpless to do anything – afraid for U.S. citizens, the Afghan people who have helped us for 20 years, Afghans at risk, women and children who will be left there to live under Taliban rule the best they can, and, of course, our men and women in uniform trying their best, under incredibly awful restrictions, to try keep everyone safe and make it out of there alive. I watch all I can, then come in here and try to calm down and catch my breath. A truly terrible situation. The coping mechanisms about which I wrote yesterday aren’t helping much today.
