My Friday morning, two hour Shakespeare class, which I look forward to over a span of six weeks has come to an end. We always take a break before another Shakespearean masterpiece is offered up by our instructor.
Our six week discussion of King Lear—Wisdom Through Suffering—was exceptionally stimulating, and I enjoy watching the plays on my iPad and reading each act as presented within the book, suggested by our instructor, that simplifies The Bard’s language, making his meaning easily understood. Next up is Othello, which concerns love, friendship power, trust and defensive rage.
Speaking of power and rage, our despicable governor, who wears a bag over his head, has mandated that our schools cannot mandate masks. Thank goodness, our schools are mandating masks, anyway, and let’s hope that life-saving mandate lasts!
With state govt. being completely ludicrous concerning Covid, I think the time is ripe for our federal govt. to declare a national emergency, authorizing Biden to mandate masks and inoculations throughout our country. Seriously, with so many officials, elected to head up our state governments acting like puppets on strings, over these last five years, those of us who understand the dire ramifications of on-going Covid breakouts have got to come to terms that we’ve been talking to wooden heads and running head first into solid brick walls, over long and—enough is enough! So if block heads are left out of discussions concerning resolving the Covid dilemma, once and for all, better to mandate masks and shots than to save lives by shutting down our economy and schools, again.
As to my personal life, today is a good day, so far. Steven and Ravi came for dinner on Friday and then both felt unwell on Saturday. As they were coughing, Covid tests were had, both of which proved negative, and thank goodness for that!.☺️
Less than a week to go before people can come inside our house. Surgery will have been a month behind me, offering my immune system the time it needs to kick back in.
Since I’ve come to know what I’d needed to know but didn’t know at an earlier time in my life, I’ve learned to ask questions instead of jumping to conclusions—and by asking questions and listening attentively to another perspective before judging, I’ve absorbed many deeper truths, which is why a greater sense of peace of mind remains mine no matter how confounding the world I live in continues to be.
Hmmm—I feel a nap coming on🔆🙋🏻♀️🌻
