Piece of Hope

 As predicted, we don't know the election results yet.  We are waiting for all the ballots to be counted.  It is anxiety producing.  When my siblings and mom texted this morning saying how despondent they felt with all the states that had cast their vote with Trump, this is was came to me...

Here is the piece of hope I am holding onto...these men will die out sometime in the near future.  I know I know this is morbid and I shouldn't say it out loud.  That leaves me looking to the younger generation and I am VERY impressed with their knowledge and activism.  This is the last harrah for wanting to go back in time and embrace women having no rights, marriage meaning only between a man and woman, and blatant racism ruling the land.  Trump has spewed racist rhetoric which incited violence, simultaneously, he has incited ACTIVISM like we have never seen before in the history of the world (in Trump jargon).  Hope was Obama's slogan.  Let's not let him down by falling into despair.  

I think now is the time we have to pick one another up when we fall.
