The beginning of the year 2020 In the US, began with an impeachment inquiry of president Donald Trump. A global pandemic infected countries throughout the world, including the US. The economy, is in the worst shape than it’s ever been. Unemployment is the highest in the U.S. than it’s ever been.
The number of deaths due to this COVID-19 pandemic, is at Over 200,000 and has devastated the U.S. and other neighboring countries, with no Form of guidance or direction from our government officials.
With a president denying the Facts of the actual existence of this pandemic, giving false and deadly medical advice to the masses, with no regard for their lives or other American citizens.
The perpetuation of the total disrespect of people of color in this country. Allowing police officers to strangle, choke and shoot citizens of color with no regard. With no justice For all. No justice for Brianna Taylor and George Floyd, with only more and more of the same Disrespect.
Protesters and rioters are taking to the streets and turning them into war zones. Breaking windows, turning over cars and setting fires. It is extremely sad to watch and disappointing. Because for all their efforts, the outcome is still the same. In the aftermath we have no change. All we have left are busted out store windows, burned up cars on the streets and more businesses closed forever.
If there ever was a year where anyone felt like throwing in the towel and saying I give up, 2020 is that year. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse, more hurt is heaped upon your shoulders to bear.
September 5th 2020, I would receive the most hurtful news that anyone could have ever received. Although, with this pandemic, many of you have received the same painful news that someone close to you had passed. Due to the pandemic or natural causes, whatever the case may be. The news is still the same, it’s all bad. And it tears you up inside.
With less than four months to go in 2020, I don’t know how much more of this sucky year I can take. So, I will say this. I say these words, That my mother said to me all my life. When things were bad for me.
“Is not that bad And it isn’t nothing that God can’t fix”
The simplest of words that bring you peace. So I say them to you. There is nothing that God can’t fix. I find these words comforting now that my mom is gone.
I know my sadness will soon go away. My grief, my anger, it’ll all be gone and I’ll remember my momma. Remembering the bad times and the good. Knowing that we have no control over any of it. Thank you Mamma.
Smoke That Over.

Wonderful country summary and remembrance of ma. 😇
Life really does Suck big time sometimes. The funky thing is there is no way around it. When your time comes you have to wade through it. Even with support around the ultimate journey is uniquely yours. There are times when I am in the thick of it, I want to hear all the cliches about the sun coming out and I can’t wait to get to the end. Right or wrong there are times when I just want to be alone and sit in the muck. Wrestle with it. Find something of value in it.
If we live we all get our personal introduction to the suck.
