We are still Divided

Okay everyone, I hope all of you went out and did your civil duty and voted in this pretty historic election. If you didn't and you are of legal voting age, then shame on you. I am not going to make anyone a victim of my political views because I think that the majority of us are up to our eyeballs with everyone else's political views at this point. I do have to mention the fact about how close the election was. It clearly shows that we are a nation divided and I don't use that in a past tense either. It worries me that the election was pretty close and it really didn't matter who won the election because we are still divided as a nation. This division will not be cured overnight and I am not too sure that it will be resolved in the next four years. I am hoping it will get better and we can all find some equal footing but that's just me. I am always asking "can't we just get along?"(maybe that should be my mantra ; ) Realistically though, it might just get worse before it gets better. I still trust in our system of Democracy. I mean it has brought us this far and we, as a country, are not in too bad of shape compared to other countries and their systems of government and leadership. And I know as long as I still have faith in our system, I have faith in our country. With that said, I will get off my podium and go off to sleep ; )

Love and kisses,
Rosebud
