@vicgrinberg I'm just starting my Saturday here in California, and will try to follow your example.
Getting together with sister, brother-in-law this morning to talk with Mom about her desires for funeral arrangements. Mom is 10 years into a 1-year life expectancy with stage 4 cancer; no immediate end in sight, but it's always looming.
With the growing authoritarianism and hate here in the US, I'm despondent at the thought that my grandkids (ages 6, 11, 12, 15) will come of age in a world that chooses to blame others and go to war rather than work together to survive the upcoming climate changes.
Meanwhile, it's time to find a place for a good cappuccino, and catch up with my sister, who I haven't seen for months. And later today, to work with friends from Lahaina/Maui on raising funds to recover from the devastating fires there.
So yes, let's take care of ourselves and try for a productive weekend, not obsessing about the weltschmertz.
(Unimportant question: I'm never sure whether or not to capitalize German nouns in English sentences. It looks wrong both ways.)
