I have tried to remain reasonable and calm over all that has transpired over the last few years. I've seen people turn against one another that were freindly on various trek sites. The real world's politics should not be allowed to intrude into these places, because it brings to the surface how far we really have to go. And how obsessed with being right some people are. including myself.
Some political divides are not going to be bridged anytime soon, no matter how badly some people want it.
I still have hope, but not the energy to deal with it anymore. I'm so very tired. And my cancer has returned.
