If what we saw on Wednesday, January 6th at the US Capitol building in Washington, DC is the standard for patriotism then you can have it. I want nothing to do with it. In my mind, patriotism is another word for selfishness and greed and fear mongering.

Also social media companies set the rules of civic and civil engagement in order to keep people safe. If dangerous things are being discussed then it needs to be shut down. Freedom of speech doesn’t mean freedom to scare or threaten people or communities.

Politicians who encouraged these actions need to pay dearly for their actions and speech. This got people killed and hurt. There are consequences to this heinous act.

How is everyone today?

It was one hell of a week in America and around the world! Wednesday’s insurrection chaos was one of the scariest things I have ever seen. All of this to stop the confirmation of the 2020 Presidential Election. I really hope for peace now and through the 20th when the Presidential Inauguration takes place.

COVID is still raging around the world with thousands dying daily. I am glad the vaccine is here to help make people immune but many are still sick. So many people could make things better for others just by wearing a mask and simple cleanliness habits.

Let’s hope for better days ahead. We need healing.

I send you all my love and care. We need to come together. Too much at stake for everyone.

We made it to Friday although it has been a short week for me. I hope we all have a good day and will be mindful of the situations around the world. The struggle is still real. Love and peace good people.
