Angry, powerless, and sick

personal reflection · 7.7

I was speaking to my hunny today about the situation this Country is in and how its affecting my every day life.  I spend long nights up, researching different ways we the people can take back control from the govt, and I'm flailing. I look at my grandbabies and wish I had known then what I know now, because I would have never married never had kids. The moral compass of this Nation has been totally eroded, totally corrupted. When a."party" takes presidence over terrible crimes being committed to others by people in positions of leadership, when agencies designated to PROTECT use their power to experiment on, murder, control, maim its citizens, when elected officials who we entrust to speak for us on the world stage instead enrich themselves at our expense, the rest of the nation loses its grip on morals, ethics, basic human compassion, consideration, and commitment to any one or any thing. I feel old, powerless, angry, mortified, scared for my progeny, and repulsed. I can't look at my flag, which used to fill me gratefulness, without wanting to cry.
