What’s missing, for me, is
- good leaders,
- courage from those with proximity to power,
- trust,
- kindness,
- honesty,
- accountability,
- expertise,
- sanity,
- common sense,
- respect,
- owned responsibility,
- trust,
- justice,
- the USA I thought I knew,
- in-person meetings,
- comfort,
- hugs with friends,
- peace of mind, and
- Oscar the cat.
What’s missing in my latest photos?
That last photo shows a question I asked my Coping and Healing group yesterday, after making sure I wasn’t missing other important issues. What’s missing for many women are a sense of self esteem and self worth, so some members of the group had trouble answering that question. Other group members helped provide the missing answers.
What’s missing from this post is missing music,
comments, and thanks to all who support me in not missing a day of blogging, including YOU.
The Year(s) of Living Non-Judgmentally 
all of it is out there, never went away, just waiting to safely emerge, or be rediscovered
hope is never missing when you’re around, my friend.
What’s missing is the expertise of Oscar the cat but thankfully he passed it on to wise Harley.
You don’t miss much, Maria.
A lot of things and people are missing, but what’s present is hope, and the sun even when it’s cloudy. The idea that the world is in a constant flux, constitutes a natural change. So, this “hell” we’re in is temporary. However, in the interim we have to be kind to ourselves and to one another t ( as we should all the time) this disaster.. I think it’s ok to cry or be sad, it’s also ok to have compassion . Have a nice day, Ann
Thank you for providing compassion and wisdom.
All present and correct here! I’ve switched off for the day.
Thanks for being so present, Peter.
I feel like there’s a lot I’m missing but I try to focus on what I have. Otherwise I could make myself miserable.
Thanks for your focus and feelings, my non-miserable friend.
May some of what’s missing be found in November
Otherwise, I may go missing from the USA.
Yes
I think that heart greeting card is very perfect for your photo collection, Ann.
Thanks for another very perfect comment, my friend.
Feeling a lot of despair about the state of our nation at present, Ann, and desperate to rediscover the country I love so much. Hoping that we can get back on the path in November. Thank you for the reminders that hope remains….
People like you help me hope for the future, Lori!
Awww, thank you Ann, and right back attcha…🥰
I was rrwriting my comment and I noticed that the whole sentence doesn’t come out on word press- no wonder, it seems as though I don’t make any sense. So, I excuse myself
You know what’s missing, but we don’t, and you still make sense!
Add one more to the list. On top of the interminable Pandemic, my daughter’s dog Penny passed unexpectedly Saturday. Everything’s harder now.
I’m so sorry for the loss of Penny, my friend. We know how much we miss our beloved dogs and cats when they leave us. ❤ ❤
Yes, you know it all too well. Thanks, Ann❤️
