I love this!!! And just what I needed as I still feel deeply about all of this. We are and were on the right side of this!!! And we all just have to coexist with so many who did not or chose not to be kind and think of our fellow citizens!!! Thank you so very much!!!

I agree Kathy Pollock. Even after losing, I am still so grateful I fought, rejoiced, reveled in those 107 days working to get Harris elected! I am off social media. I have not been able to bring my self to read or listen to legacy media, either. But I have been rereading Viktor Frankl’s “Man’s Search for Meaning” about his real-life observation of living through the Holocaust. You may think that’s depressing reading, but quite the contrary. My favorite quote so far is “Life is never made unbearable by circumstances, but by lack of meaning and purpose.” Most of us have been a part of the dominant culture and afforded its security. So this loss is very acutely felt for its injustice. America chose poorly. Even as we tried our hearts out to show the better way. It feels unbearable. Yet, how many people living through unbearable circumstances preserved so we can fight another day? I hope to honor them going forward, as I find relevant, pragmatic actions to take.
Thank you for this. Perspective…and I have too been doing similar reading. Rightly so in seeing other’s struggles and how the lived, persevered and in some cases prevailed…be an example or path to how we start this next chapter. All the best to you and your family.
