I've been putting off watching "The Wire" -- I stopped shortly into season 1 -- because I just couldn't take any more depressing scenarios in my life. Yes, this is a personal comment, and probably as such, OT. But, it's time. As another commenter says, "the cycle repeats." I got on the wrong side of that cycle. As a quippy quote on Facebook just reminded me again, yesterday, "The fears we don't face become our limits." When Trump was elected, I started rewatching "The West Wing." (By the way, many of the issues we currently face -- issues, not personalities -- the writers of that show addressed in interesting and informative fashion.) It's time for the counter-point. Not quite out there, yet. Still watching a show. But, closer to the world we live in. Sorry for the personal comment, here, in a way. Today's little quote from the same source, on FB: "Be very careful what you think. Your thoughts run your life." A reason I held off on watching "The Wire." But it's time, now.
