A few months ago I wrote this blog…

The Day The World Really Changed…
Old newspapers from November 2008 that we had saved. Back then I, Mister Stability, and Mere-Mere worked very hard even from thousands of miles away to make those dreams a reality.
I had already given up on religion as an answer…but back then I still held out hope that politics could bring change. But not four years later…
Then there was 2016/2017…
- Donald Trump…
- Brexit…
- Universal Credits…Teresa May…and the worst Christmas since Scrooge…

A core belief of transcendentalism is in the inherent goodness of people and nature. Adherents believe that society and its institutions have corrupted the purity of the individual, and they have faith that people are at their best when truly “self-reliant” and independent. (Wikipedia)
