People have grown apathetic. How sad it is to see that, but I know it’s not forever. People, wake up.
I am wondering how long before people panic and become REALLY agitated. I think it is soon.
For myself, I’ve never had a time in life where I was not able to visualize a bit of distant future for myself and my family.
Now I am spending time thinking short term future and what-ifs. I don’t want to panic but I also don’t want to be caught with my pants down.
Just a few years ago I could see the mister and I playing with future grandkids here at the house, our children having a better future than us.
Now I worry if our kids will ever be able to purchase a home, what will the future hold for them?
If we have a year or two of sky-high gas, I don’t even know how well the mister and I will maintain.
We wouldn’t even be able to be a life-preserver for the kids. Things really look bleak now, when I look at the long term future.
I suppose I will start being much more frugal, plan for the worst and pray for the best. I am growing tired of my new what-if obsession.
Something has to give somewhere, it can’t and won’t continue as is.
