Hi Tracy! And thanks again and so nice to hear from you.

No, I do not believe it's a case of 'misery loves company', although I suppose company of the right kind can be very comforting. Nope! This can of worms of long suffering is thrust upon us from without by Evil people persecuting us and waging war upon us, the same as they ruin lives abroad with their incessant wars of expansion (and so far all colossal failures and trillions down the toilet).

Increasingly, I find it all an exercise in Faith of the kind that retains joy in ones life. Even still, everyone once and awhile we (me and De Wife) have to regroup because at times, it is indeed overwhelming that such exponential large sheer Evil is being perpetrated across the face of the globe.

It sure does help, though, to keep company with like-minded people. And acts of resistance to evil validate the life of the soul as we imperfectly separate ourselves from evil.

Thank you for your comment. It does help knowing how many people are having the same issues and understand. I don't have very many people around me who are on the same page but the ones I do I cherish and thank God for. Also, everyone here keeps me going. 😊

Yes! And to boil it down, it is highly problematic be a sane fish swimming in an insane world. Cling to the wisdom of Scripture as guide, continue to struggle in growth of character in the ways of the Lord ... and cast out destructive self-doubt attachments. And you'll do just fine.

And remember always, the demonic forces always want to tear us down, incinerated our home and families. We must never consent to this.
