It's a day of being holed up at home, supposedly working but not really, because of snow and ice. As a daughter of the north I have an appreciation for snow and ice. It's an excuse to shut everything down and just be. Or just think depending on the situation.
As for me, it's been a lot of thinking today. And a lot of that thinking has been drifting towards how I'm a selfish bitch and not good enough. Yep, the thoughts went into that dark and dangerous territory today. There's a lot of legal and political turmoil for people I know and care about. I'm trying to be a good friend but it's either not hitting me to trigger any emotion or it triggers a lot of personal emotions that make me want to scream at them. Why scream? Because what they fail to realize is that while they might be discriminated against for being a minority the end result is the same as what I deal with every day. But no one cares to take up the cause from my perspective because I'm considered not a minority. Well, other than being a woman but that doesn't really have an impact on this subject.
But I'm being selfish. It hurts them. I should be caring. I should be stepping up to join the rally. Instead I think about my own wounds and how I'm not alternative enough to hit the radar.
Okay, enough with the whining for the moment.
