    It rains on the just and the unjust. You have described it well.

    Both beautiful and sad. This may explain why Asians have been targeted in NYC. Several months ago my son worked on a documentary about the increase in hate crimes against Asians. :( He has been noticeably rattled about the dramatic increase in crime in NYC, even in his own neighborhood which typically has a low crime rate. Two individuals who he worked with professionally were murdered in the past two months. :eek: The woke can't blame this savage behavior on climate change. Agree, there is more to come. There are hotspots of evil and there will be an increase in chastisements. Prayers. +

    Sad and frightening. You spoke truth.
    Prayer is the only remedy.

    I felt drawn this last while to wear my large gold St Benedict's cross. outside my t shirt this last few months as a Witness. I have to be careful of course since there is a lot of intense anti Catholic hate round here and sometimes I have to hide it.

    It may be my imagination but sometimes I get the feeling now and again that people stare at the Cross with a real hate.

    But if they want to do something about it they can talk to my large white Polar Bear dog. I have to swallow all the rainbow flags and woke, they can swallow my golden cross.

    It is my own payback. I couldn't be annoyed arguing with them all so It my Cross say all that needs saying.

    If we start giving way to these awful people in the little things, then when the time comes to resist them in the big things we won't be able for it.

    Wearing the Cross is good practise.

    I always wear my small silver Benectine crucifix any time I’m awake here. Fortunately there is very little negative pushback and many positive comments.

    Yesterday I took a close friend for a 180 mile (290km) motorcycle ride around the mountains of West Virginia then down part of Skyline Drive above the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. It was a great trip and at one point on Skyline Drive we had to stop for five minutes for a white tail deer that was on the road ahead of us and walked right up to us, almost close enough to pet.

    When we got back to Front Royal we stopped at our favorite bbq restaurant for dinner, then walked next door for an ice cream cone.

    As we walked up my friend immediately noticed a small rainbow flag heart on the window of the ice cream shop.

    The sales clerk slid open the window and asked what we would like. We just shook our head, said we were just looking, and walked away.

    This game can be played both ways.

    Geralyn and I have prepped and still plan on maintaining excess supplies. However, we don't see it as a means of saving ourselves, but of helping out the neighbors around us when everything hits the fan. A type of corporal works of Mercy to accompany a sharing of hope in Christ alone. :)

    Jesus, Mary, and Joseph: pray for us!

    Yes I feel the same way. I have lost the feeling of urgency to prep I had for a long time. But anything left will help to feed the hungry when the need arises.

    I am really puzzled as to why someone who is trying to make money tries to push the Sodomite, Woke agenda in the face of paying customers. Like you when I see that awful rag I head off elsewhere.

    But I do try to pray for them, it is awful to think of so many people racing to hell.
