[quote=underdose]”I thought and felt, “The condition of America implied by this has got to be the most depressing thing I have ever witnessed in my entire life.””
I don’t have gun advice to add. I just want to say that I envy you that you are just now depressed. I’ve been depressed since the late 90’s during the tech stock bubble. I’ve been expecting a day of reckoning since then. And when it didn’t come in the early part of this decade but we had a housing bubble instead and in addition, I became even more depressed expecting the reckoning to be that much more severe.
As for me, instead of meditating, I’m studying improv comedy. I plan on just laughing my way through armageddon…[/quote]
Improv is a lot of fun. There’s a comedy club (brick by brick or something?) on India street where a lot of people who take those classes sharpen their skills.
