so uncomfortable listening to the view of others, no matter how "whacked" we think they are, I just don't understand this attitude!! I have a 30yr old "mentally challenged" daughter and am constantly amazed at the reaction of others when she expresses her opinion on a variety of issues..it is usually immediately dismissed because no one considers that she really does have a grasp of things, but has difficulty expressing her feelings. I have probably influenced her outlook on how she views the world, but as Sally Field tried to say, if she ruled the world there would be no more goddamn wars!
The realty of it is that we are so fucked that I am at wit's end in trying to explain to her what is happening...and what is about to happen! My 63 yrs have failed to give me the knowledge and wisdom to assure her that her life will be so much better than mine, because as I see it, she will be faced with challenges that I have never even come close to facing and have no idea how to advise her.
I only hope my sig line will be her future!
