Here's the thing people, it's not just about Hilary loosing. That a woman lost. Or that a Democrat lost. Or that our side lost. We are not being unpatriotic because we don't like the outcome of a race. I think a lot of people are honorable and want to accept the outcome of the race because that is what has been done, what is expected and what is the right thing to do. They want to be that bigger person but you know what STINGS the most? (And I am directing this to all the people who have no empathy in their postings, calling people unpatriotic for being upset). That someone, who we have heard speak words of HATE is now representative of our people. You are asking me to be okay with a man, who I have heard say the most horrible things about my friends. And I am supposed to be okay with that, to shut up because my side lost? It's the HATE that I have problem with. Forgive me, when I listen to his acceptance speech and cringe when he says he is going to help ALL people when that is not what I have heard come from his mouth in the past. And you tell me to suck it up, that I am unpatriotic. Grow some empathy.
As a little girl I would look on my mom’s arm and wonder why she had such a weird mark near her shoulder. A few days ago, as the warm solution penetrated my bloodstream, I started to cry remembering my mom’s mark. The nurse asked me if I was okay and I told her I was so incredibly happy. As a diabetic I was stressed never knowing if I was doing enough to avoid it but also, keeping some semblance of life in doing outdoor things. I cried because I am incredibly grateful to the SCIENCE that made this possible in only a year. Less time for me to worry about my only kiddo should the worse happen. If ur on the fence...I’ve worked in entertainment for over 20 years and I’ve seen first hand how easy celebrities influence the public. Some do good and others well...I’m happy to have a little bit of the gracious Dolly Parton with me. Scientists on the other hand, very rarely get the recognition for their years of study, years of research and expertise contributing to (wo)mankind....
