    I don’t think they can protect me. My family has been uprooted before thanks to war. I can’t sleep tonight. I dk what to do. I don’t understand why I have so many challenges this year. I’m starting to feel darker thoughts again. I struggled so much in the past and here we go again.

      Seasons pass. In two years we will begin to undo what was set in motion today. We survived him before. We will survive him again. Somehow.

          I don’t know, man. I’m trying to hang on here myself. Get some sleep and some perspective. Survive one day at a time. That’s how I got through his first four years.

          And I might just withdraw from social media and news. I’m not sure I’m going to want to know what happens over the next four years.

              All folks I have in my life. But then, I’m getting up there. I’ve definitely lived through more hostile times toward them. But I really hoped my kids wouldn’t have to.

                  I’ve got five kids. I have no choice but push forward and keep fighting for them. But the truth is, they seem poised to take on darker days than I ever have.

                    Bless thier hearts. I don’t have the heart to do it. I’m super depressed over this. What was 4 decades of being a good person for when a dbag can become president 2x? I should have just been a villain.
