I’ll say one thing for days that are so busy & hectic that you don’t have time to think, bouncing from one meeting to the next, then having a big formal dinner, then driving for four hours to get to the conference you’re at on Thursday and Friday.
There’s no time on those days to look at the news and see what incredibly idiotic, fascist, and unconstitutional things your new government has done.
I find myself much calmer. Not feeling safer – just calmer.
