Or I won't.
The truth is I care, and I have cried for plenty of things.
The further truth is that today is my Birthday. I am 32 years young, and despite being quite often twice the age of a significant amount of the people I run with I keep up with them, I hold my own. We'll need youthful vigor to hold up against these issues of yesterday, today and tomorrow. The truth is that in many ways we're between a rock and a hard place.
Why? Great question, let me try and explain this. We have solutions in the works for plenty of problems, however these solutions haven't been realized, haven't come to be materialized, haven't happened. Yet more problems are coming around with an ever pressing and unrelenting frequency. Thus we have the problems of yesterday, and the problems of today.
All of this naysaying aside, I want to be Thankful. I want to be thankful, and express 'Thanks' to those who have gone out and aroused us, have gone out and fixed things, have made a difference.
Some of these people may not be as well known as others but they deserve a call out.

Thank you.
And for those that remembered my Birthday, thanks. It was a rough one, but at least for now it seems I got through it. May we all have many more.
