I don&#8217;t have any work appointments today, so, whatever.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I didn&#8217;t have a prompt ready for today, either.  I really don&#8217;t know how I missed the first week of the month.  I do have most of the month covered, but this one is missing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, another prompt from my collection&#8230;&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How do you feel about the political climate of the country?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s horrible.  It appears that Biden was elected, but that&#8217;s not going to fix anything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously, I&#8217;ve written quite a bit already about things over the past week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my session with my psychologist yesterday, I was focusing more on my whole thing with what is the function of government;  why do we have it if it&#8217;s not doing the things it was established to do?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m also still listening to Harry Browne&#8217;s <em>How I Found Freedom In An Unfree World. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to some very 70s ideas on intimate relationships, there&#8217;s this sense that you can choose to just not participate in things that negatively affect your freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m not sure you can do that anymore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;m also disagreeing strongly with the ideas on marriage.  Maybe it&#8217;s something where you presume equality between partners at the start of the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My wife and I built our financial situation together.  There&#8217;s been points in our marriage where we weren&#8217;t at all on financial parity.  Okay.  That happens.  We made a commitment to each other, and that works for us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maybe I write some more later, but I think I&#8217;m finished for now.  Back to work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m writing in the middle of the morning while waiting on my doctor for a Telehealth appointment.
