Echoes

2020 has reminded us, or perhaps in the case of some of us actually made us aware for the first time ever, just how fragile we are.  Certain big-ticket issues have held us under their thumb, regardless of who we are, where we live, and what it is we do to earn our living.  

Unique to each of us, still, are the issues that affect us and either no one else or just a very small, concentrated number of people.  We all get just one life, of course.  Not everything that happens in it produces an echo that resonates far and wide. The reach of that resonance is irrelevant both to its volume and its staying power within the much smaller confines of our day-to-day.  That which is important to us is that which affects our life.  

It is for that reason that responsibility for our life begins and ends with us.  Look inward, not outward. Mount up and ride to your own rescue.  No one else shall...  






...they each have themselves to save.
