I still try to do my part for the planet, but I will admit that the fact that I don't know whether the war madness will have me all just fighting for survival has me concerned. Will it lead me to giving up the ghost of caring about the world beyond my garden? Unfortunately, I fear, I will soon know.

The lord of the Flies moved me deeply when I read it as a child. I was probably as stupid as the kids. But finding myself feeling the same tribal instincts had me questioning how impressionable I was.

Hope you and everyone are doing well. Thank you.
