Ah, Beth. I, too, was concerned over the election results, but by good fortune chanced upon two strangers, right after November 5. One was a paraeducator, wife and mother of three school-aged children, who was nearing completion of her teaching degree. A few minutes later, I fell into conversation with a music therapist who has nearly finished her nursing degree. She loved music therapy, working with patients with dementia, but was thwarted during covid because she was "non-essential" -- not anymore!
So, yeah, let's continue our work and strive for better lives for all. Thanks for your words, Beth.
I looked up the definition of brain fog and found this - “The term is colloquial, not scientific - experts label it cognitive impairment.” I did not experience this during Covid, but I often heard people talking about. A week after the election it hit me that was what I was experiencing. I have been avoiding post election analysis and trying to find grounding in my own mind. Not quite on solid ground yet but getting there. Thank you for sharing.
