Tired
I’m tired of people acting like non stop anger doesn’t have an impact. That directing anger and rage at the handy group of the day, doesn’t have an impact.
I’m tired of the excuses, before I ever hear them. Of the “well, but”, or the “yes it’s tragic, but”.
I’m tired of people thinking that hurting other people is a game. While you’re busy owning the other guy, there’s a real person being impacted by these decisions. There’s a human being, with hopes, dreams, and aspirations.
I’m tired of watching people weaponize faith, while ignoring the core tenants of that faith. I’m tired of people who insisting, “Jesus didn’t mean that”, when it’s pretty unambiguous what he said.
I’m tired of holding my breath, and waiting to see if this time, I know a name on the list.
I’m tired of walking out the door with a small prayer that I won’t be on a list.
I’m tired.
