How are You Feeling?
November 10, 2024
This is not a political blog, but I can’t help but note that whatever your political views are, this whole election process has been stressful. And we also can’t help but be saddened by all the people who are losing their homes to fire at both ends of our country. Not to mention the challenges people are enduring due to the recent hurricanes and the destructive flooding that followed.
So, this is a good time for a lot of deep breaths, for looking to the positive things in our lives, for nurturing the loving relationships that we have and for remembering that we have a purpose.
I am a co-chair of our Democratic Party in a very rural county in western Virginia. While we, of course, were very “red” I feel good about making the Democrats feel okay about being Democrats. I was at the Women’s March with sisters, daughters, and granddaughters. I don’t feel the same this time. Rather than protest, my small group has decided to canvas asking people what their needs are - not promoting Democrats but just trying to learn.
