“There is no final victory, as there is no final defeat. There is just the same battle. To be fought over and over again. So toughen up, bloody toughen up.” —Tony Benn, long-serving UK MP
oh gosh. We can do this. We can pick ourselves up and we can "love" our brothers, uncles, grandpas and husbands whose views are so different than ours. We can share our thoughts and our pains and illuminate the darkness with our words and our protests. We can hug each other and remember that there are so many of us walking around, dumbfounded and questioning our country and our allegiances. We are hurting with you. People we love can hold different views. And we can share who we are, what we believe and how we will make things right. One day again, our values will shine through. Keep sharing your pain. Your thoughts and words are *so* important.
P.s. if it's any consolation... I have to remind myself of all of these things too!! I'm mad at almost everyone. I've warned my husband ( who is a strong dem) that one wrong move and I will bite his head off. Just because I am so angry right now.
