What Are You Thinking? Continued 14

I know other people are going through their own personal slog across hell, but honestly I don’t have the capacity to worry about them. I want to care how they are doing, but I just can’t right now.
Compassion fatigue is a real thing. I have a friend who is dealing with a husband going into hospice. A family friend passed away Monday. I want to be there for both families, but I feel stuck and exhausted all the time. It feels like there is so much death these days.

I’m sorry for you. It does seem as we get older we go to way more funerals than weddings. The joy of aging. Be well.

Right now you just need to focus on things in front of you. Take care of you so you can put your energy there. Big hugs to you, my friend.
 
I’ve always used ink cartridges on my fountain pens due to ease and no mess. Wondering if I want to experiment with bottle ink?
Bottle ink is cheaper. I always thought it was fun too. Something about drawing the ink in the pen. And lastly, I always loved the smell of a bottle of fountain pen ink.

This has me thinking about my grandfather, who lived to be 90...
I never could empathize with his life.. He out lived his wife, one of his children, his granddaughter, and many other friends and families...
Now that I'm older... I've had very close people to me pass, and it definitely makes me think about loss differently.
 
Listen to the mustn'ts, child,
Listen to the don'ts.
Listen to the shouldn'ts, the impossibles, the wont's.
Listen to the never haves,
the listen close to me:
Anything can happen, child, anything can be.

My favorite poem by Shel Silverstein, or maybe ever.

However, you probably should ignore that final line if you are just spam DM-ing girls on Lit 😝 or if your name is @LordofDargaardkeep

will y'all stop making me laugh I'm sobbing over here
Two brothers, ages six and four, were playing in their room just before breakfast. The 6-year-old says,

"Y'know, now that we're getting older, I think it's about time we started learning to curse."

The younger brother agreed, so they decided that some time during breakfast, the older brother would work the word "hell" into a sentence, and the younger brother would use the word "ass" in a sentence.

As they sat down to the breakfast table, the mother asked the 6-year-old what he would like to eat. He responded, "Aww hell ma, I think I'll just have some Cheerios".

Well, the mother flew into hysterics, smacking the boy out of his chair, chasing him all the way to his room, with tears streaming down the youngster's face.

She returned a moment later, and in exasperation asked the 4-year-old what he wanted. He replied,

"I don't know Mom, but you can bet your ass it won't be Cheerios!"
 
Two nuns are driving through Transylvania when suddenly, out of nowhere, a vampire jumps on their windshield

The nuns panic and the one driving starts swerving the car to try knock him off, to no avail.

"Quick! Quick! Show him your cross! Show him your cross!", shouts the one nun.

The other nun looks at the vampire and shouts:

"Get off the fucking windshield you undead bastard!!"
