[quote=Anonymous]It’s ok to have feelings. Try to focus on the positive and go easy on yourself and recognize that yes, other people do have it a ton worse than you but that doesn’t mean you are supposed to feel jolly about this dystopian nightmare. Personally, I take that sadness and I convert it to anger. Anger at our elected officials who have completely dropped the ball and produced a response that would be expected in a third world country, similar to the one my parents came from. My parents did not immigrate and leave everything and everyone that they love for this shit. And then I take that anger and I convert it to determination to make decisions: decisions on who to vote for and who to support and how to make change so that my children do not have to go through a completely avoidable experience like this ever again. I think we all need to produce something, something real from what we are feeling right now. We are Americans and we should be more empowered than this.[/quote]
