Bowie/Prince/rockstar deaths

On top of the political insanity that has been happening around the world and mass shootings and Bowie/Prince dying, the following has happened to me and others I know this year (so far):

-Friend from work found out her husband cheated and they are separting/possibly divorcing

  • Friend from high school committed suicide

  • My dad was in the hospital for a month due to heart problems and now will most likely need a heart transplant

  • My grandparents said some surprising racist/sexist things - things they have never said before or at least blatantly showed

-Friend's kitten died of FIP (which is VERY rare - only a very small percentage of cats get this)

And lots of other personal and frustrating things dealing with politics and family :/ It's really hard for me to believe, at this point 7 months into this year, that it's all coincidence. There seems to be some kind of bad vibes happening this year. Best I can do is hold onto any good news that I hear during the day and think at least some things are going right. knock on wood
