Democrats and ten Republicans joined together to impeach President Donald Trump for the second time in his presidency. It’s amazing that the insurrection was one week ago. It’s truly a troubling time in the United States as President-Elect Joe Biden will be inaugurated on January 20, 2021. What a time we live in right now.
Righteous anger is a righteous response.
This makes me sick to my stomach. This is America right now. Not the greatest nation on Earth, not that it was to begin with.
You win some and you lose some. That is how life goes. Accepting losses is a statement of character and gives one the driving force to try again. When it involves power and politics then it’s a whole new ball game where some who lose shouldn’t try again.
Those who lose in the game of politics should have some grace about them and realize that when it’s over, it’s over. The people have the say in winning and losing in this case. It’s OK to lose and if you do it well people will respect you for giving it your best.
Maybe some folks need to realize that it’s not about wheeling and dealing your way into winning because it doesn’t work like that. It’s time to move forward and to prepare for a new chapter in the lives of people who have suffered so much.
It’s time to let go of the past and embrace the new things to come on January 20, 2021.
Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.

Last night I told someone to go to hell. Yep, you read that right. I told someone on Facebook who is an acquaintance of a friend of mine to go to hell. My reason was that she was not being nice. Her unwavering devotion to the current President of the United States she was saying some very mean and nasty things about Joe Biden. I realize that people say mean things about The President too but that is for another post.
Needless to say, it was not my best moment, but I was sticking up for my friend and the debate had me a little emotionally charged.
Being human means that you are going to make mistakes and do things that you shouldn’t. I know I disappointed and surprised some people.
This makes me feel like a hypocrite for being a believer and not showing kindness and love to my neighbor. Believe me this makes me feel embarrassed. My friends I need to do better.
