Prompt: How do I define safety and where do I feel it most in my life right now?
I know I’m generally physically-safe. Unlike during the “Summer of Love,” 2020, I don’t have to worry much about going outside of my little walled sanctuary.
I’m in a place, financially, where I should be able to meet my needs well into old age.
Emotionally, I don’t know. My quasi-stoic disposition is helping quite a bit. That I’m not on-board with fashionable political opinions has strained some personal relationships. Aside from joining your political party, church, cult, whatever, there’s nothing I can do about it. You’re going to have your beliefs; I’m not going to agree with them. I would ask that you not shoot me for being opposed, but if you’re going to, anyway, please have the cameras rolling.
I will abstain from voting except to vote against particularly-bad issues or candidates.
Leave me alone, and don’t take my stuff. It’s really not that complicated.
