Hey @jay2,
I felt similarly this morning too when I saw the news. So grateful for my little space here, my partner, my dog, my colleagues and my forum friends. Sometimes that's all we can do, try to feel grateful for the small things while big things like this seem to spin out of control.
Hang in there and reach out here if you need.

Hey @jay2
I think the world is very aware of the cost of waging wars. I am not sure how this one will go, but i will focus on my own goals until something comes along to change that. Russia is a country of people and hopefully they don't want the blood of their sons and daughters to flow just for some silly land grab.
