I like Crawford. Here's a post from Bill on the Hill...
I had a horrible time with the depression that I experienced upon realizing the facts as I read and understood them. Going to the city and seeing the masses of traffic did nothing to settle my nerves. Eating at corporate restaurants with parking lots full of SUV's made me sick to my stomach.
All from looking at what was staring me in the face
Then I took a break to settle my nerves.
And discovered that I could only do so much. And I cannot forget my humanity. I had to relax. Accepting the facts is hard but allows me to move on with my life.
The last two days I have spent on the river fishing with my 26 year old son. We caught maybe 40 or 50 between us and stood side by side flycasting. He and I are in agreement as to the prospects of what we know or assume to know. And we found this wonderful time to fish and share.
Not so important to the rest of the world but to me this time contained all the magic that Merlin could cast. And we experienced a moment where laughter was all we could say. Laughter so intense it was like crying.
I refuse to go blindly or quietly into whatever darkness awaits. No stumbling or groaning or moaning for a second chance. We as a race of beings have too much potential to not face our truth or its consequences.
So I buy solar panels and save seeds and live as I always have but prepare for the worst. And hope for the best.
That has to be enough for me. It is all I can do. But together with focus we all can discuss and show what we know. But still it is up to each of us to decide whether or not we accept this as being a possibility.
And accept the consequences if we are wrong.
