77: Be careful, there is a war going on outside

There is a war going on outside, so we have to protect our hearts and minds. There is a real enemy out here and it's time we band together and fight back because we cannot stop a war that we don't realize is raging in our hearts, in our minds, and on our timelines.

This month has been interesting to say the least, from dealing with my own health scare, to an unexpected death in the family, coupled with news reports of mass murders, death, and destruction it can take a toll on us mentally especially during the holidays which are already hard enough as people mourn lost ones who have transitioned, the effects of Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), etc. My heart and prayers go out to all of the family and friends affected by last night's mass shooting at Walmart in Chesapeake, VA; the UVA community from the mass shooting on November 13, 2022; Idaho College Murders on November 13, 2022; and the list goes on.
