I have gotten a little crazy. I feel guilty using a straw or a plastic water bottle or bag. I hate all the traffic. Where I live we have good public transportation but not many people actually use it. Meanwhile the traffic gets worse with most cars filled with only a single driver.
I actually don't think I can handle the news and I need to take a break. I am so upset by politics and the state of the world.

I still follow the news but not on TV, because I find TV too activating and addictive, but I have an internet addiction. I've gotten to be the same way also justa about buying fruits in plastic containers, like berries, or the thin vegetable bags. We have recycling here but it is still a waste to use all this plastic, especially like straws that can't be recycled.
My parents lived through WWII in Eastern Europe. I've been blessed to live in peaceful countries since. It's a worry what is happening in Ukraine.
