Light.
Where?
At the end of the tunnel.
That’s only a pinprick. Let’s go back.
We’re halfway there. The end is in sight.
I’m tired. Let’s rest.
We’ll fall asleep and never wake up.
That’s just an old story –
Bones in the dark!
Ooh, give me a piggyback!
I’m not carrying you. Not over rough ground when I can’t see where to step.
Tell me again, then.
Not over rough ground when –
No, I mean, what it’s going to be like there.
Better than here. We’ll see more clearly.
Better than before the tunnel?
Maybe appreciate it better.
Let’s go.

Was that about the Midterms?

Yeah, sort of, seemed to fit ‘Light’ as a first word. The Midterms are a start but there’s a long way to go … hmm, ‘go’ is my final word …

Is that seeing clearly a promise? I’d really like to believe you.

Maybe the idea of adversity helping us to see what’s really valuable?

It certainly does focus the mind.

Sideshow Don is cornered. Thiings will get even uglier, I’m sure, although it’s fun watching that fat bozo come apart at the seams. He’s sweating like a beer bottle 🥳

Haha, thanks for commenting, love the SD monicker! As you say, funny in a car-crash sort of way, but let’s hope a credible Main Act comes along sooner rather than later.

Yes, we’re always halfway there, by definition, Zeno’s paradox, just need a path forward, not necessarily a way out…

A good take on the situation, Hardie, realism and hope are stronger together.
