r. points out that i'm pretty lucky and my life is pretty convenient and i should not complain so much and she is right, it's all true. including having her in my life. i should not take the good things for granted. i have been a dark character but i've also been lucky in life. 
we who are relatively free also should not take it for granted. while maga tortures children at the border maga funds the torture of palestinian children in israel. we should not take freedom for granted, and we should stop funding torture.
