If I had the answer, sister, we'd be well on our way to a better world by now.

Seriously. Don't listen to the "haters" 😀 I am very glad to have you in my life, and I think you can add a lot of nuance and value to discussions that others would appreciate too, if they could just hear you

You are not, Tehilah. Listen to me, you are outspoken, you stand or what is right and true. People do not give you a chance, and they are people with issues who are deeply unwell. I do hope you won't define yourself by how they treat you on here. I do think your kids are truly wonderful!

Handsome gentleman, hello, friend

That is an interesting perspective, and I am inclined to agree. We'll have to see where time takes us, but I do hope more young folks turn out a little bit like you 🙂

Yes, they are deeply unhappy, and unwell. There is so much unwellness these days, for all the labels and attention placed on it, you'd think people would be more well adjusted. The problem, I suppose, has to be worse before it could be better

It's hard to explain why, but that is deeply upsetting to me, Lady Tehilah. The alternative to new life is no life, that is so sad, the world is so broken. Think of the scene after the nuke goes off, like they had on the TV so much in my time, with a barren, dead landscape, devoid of all life 😱

What is anti-natalism? They are against birthing new kids? How else do they expect to have people or a world or anything they take for granted about their lives?

Kids these days have no discipline at all, it's terrible. No one knows how to parent anymore, half of the people who would have had their own kid by now are middle aged and bitter about life. It's a totally different world now

Wow that's a lot!

Athena is a wise Goddess, and you are wise to heed her words. May her wisdom serve you well, sister. Blessed be.

Portland is something else

Are you still interacting with those people? I was very disappointed and stayed away a long time because of the toxicity

Right, Lady! You cannot learn without making mistakes. There is a reason we ask 'art ready to suffer to learn'!

😆

So mote it be, sister.
