Today, for example. After an hour of being yelled at by an authority figure who didn’t know what she was talking about and who was under the false assumption that what someone worthless told her was true, I learned that earlier today my sister tried to kill herself.
By slashing her own throat.
And there is nothing I can do about either of those things. If “by this time sanity will have returned” means that I’m not going to pick up over this stuff, then it is correct. If it is supposed to mean that I am impervious to the madness around me, that I am immune to feeling angry, afraid, defensive, and confused then sanity has not returned.
Right now I am going to act like it has. Keep calm and carry on.
