At the end of the election, however many days that takes. Some of us will have the president we want and some of us will not.
But this is not just an election between one man and one woman. This is also a check point for ourselves, the voters.
How do we want to live the next few years out? Do we want to live in hate? Fight with everyone online? Spew hate at each other? Or do we want to go back to the way it was when maybe we didn’t like everyone’s opinions, but we did respect them. We could have a civil conversation.
Maybe going forward we need to go back to how it was with my parents generation. You kept your religion and your politics to yourself. I don’t want to know who you vote for or who you pray to. That’s none of my business. I’m judging you only by how you treat me, what I see and hear myself. Your actions in this world. And that’s all I want to be judged by.
I don’t want to feel this overwhelming anxiety anymore.
Look at how we are all acting right now. We are teaching the next generation that this behavior is normal. It’s fucking not. It’s immature, it’s beneath us.
And the whole world is watching us tear each other down and apart. And some countries are laughing at the great America falling apart from within. Enough is enough.
As one person I can’t make a change in the world’s social climate but together we ALL can. Just agree to wake up tomorrow let this anger go. Don’t make nasty online comments. Keep our conversations and differences civil. Be adults.
Go forward with kindness, positivity and empathy….
I want better for our futures and the next generations futures. And it has to start here with us.
I hope everyone has a safe positive experience getting out there to vote. And the tomorrow is the first day of the rest of our positive lives…
