Heather Cox Richardson writes an informed and informative newsletter just about every day. She is informed because she brings so many perspectives to bear; she is a historian in her day job. She is informative for exactly the same reason.
Richardson wrote in the newsletter I received today, that she probably will not pay attention to them behind the curtain in the U.S. House of Representatives these days, unless what they do may have a chance of becoming law or otherwise affecting our lives.
This makes a good New Year's Resolution for everyone. Pay no attention to them behind the curtain unless what they do may actually affect the way you live your life. Paying attention to them takes all the oxygen out of the room, as they say. To put it another way, watching their antics takes so much time that there is nothing left for the good.
So, this year pay no attention to them behind the curtain unless they may actually affect our lives, which they rarely do. Otherwise we risk losing sight of the vast majority of life that is good.
