We have some in our family at the same stage as you, saying these same things.
It is heartbreaking to know what they’ve lived thru, served our country, marveled at grandchildren taking up the mantle, but get really down from time to time - since 2009 to be sure...
It helps only a little to remember ‘life was not promised to be fair. . . ‘
Not a Bible scholar, but understand ‘it’s’ all there - -
We have never expected life to be fair & we did expect that one day our country would go the way of the Roman Empire. We did not expect the avalanche to come this quickly. The last ten years have had more effect on our culture than all of the years before it. Their plans are coming to fruition. We did not stop them.
Now we will see if there is enough backbone left in us to stop the avalanche.
The time has arrived.
I did not intend to ramble on like this but we are truly perplexed by the situation & like many others we are ready to defend our constitution.
