No matter how you look at it and what side you come from, inevitably, half of these United States were going to be left unhappy, maybe unheard, and unvalidated. That's the way it goes with elections like these.
In all my years, I've never seen such a drastic divide between people. I've been a registered independent all my adult life, I've voted on both sides of the ballot. I do this because I try to understand both sides. I think that this might be what we all need to do now, no matter what side you find yourself on today.
Perhaps if we can find it in our hearts to step into the shoes of someone with whom we don't agree with politically; we can find space in our hearts to understand each other better. After all, it's in our nature to understand and comfort each other.
Somehow, we need to find our way back to being the United States of America and leave the divided states of America behind us. So, this morning, I'm asking you to make one more choice: to be kind or to not be kind. The choice is yours.
I Love You & I Wish You Light
