Finding a reason
So at a minute and a half from 69, I find I no longer look forward to anything....without boring everyone with a very long story, my husband and I were ripped off of our retirement funds, by former friends. So now close to 70 we are both having to work and hope that the current admins and possible new potus does not cut SS and Medicare. I no longer look forward to anything other than survival. I am not a happy person to be around and tried a couple of meds via my doctors but felt sick for months on both which made it difficult to work. I no longer want to try anymore meds. How does one find something to look forward to? How do you find joy anymore? I hope to get through an ugly commute each day to find my dog and husband both okay and that's it.I put on my game face to get through work but am exhausted at the end of it and just have nothing left anymore. Not a pleasant place. Not looking forward to anything anymore. Just survival and that does not seem enough most of the time.

Amen to that! If stressed out by all this pandemic fear read the Psalms, especially Psalm 34 and 146.
Thank you, very well said!
John is my favorite:❤️
