I had such hope for 2021 knowing that the election was over and all but done and all the upset over who won was done. It was decided. OVER. but what happened on the sixth day into the month of January left me stunned and speechless and tearful. I had come in the house from grocery shopping and turned on the tv for the local news. What I saw took my breath away. OUR nation's capital building being over run by rioters and protesters determined to get into the building and they did. Hundreds of people rampaged into the building destroying as they went. It was a scene I hope to never see again. If you lived in another country it might be normal to see such a thing. The talk of revolution and riots are normal. The world is dealing with a pandemic now though and things are calmer than they used to be.
It is now FEBRUARY...Biden is president and Trump has been impeached and is on trial. It's a process I know. They are all reliving the nightmare that happened that day in the Capital building. Clearly as the senators etc. give their testimony you can see what the whole ordeal did to them. They were so very close to being in real life threatening situations. The guard is still standing around and so are the gates that were installed around the building. Life is still going on inside the Pandemic that we are under. They put speed on vaccines to help us fight. Some are getting shots others are still waiting and some refuse completely. Some people in the United States of America don't seem to be the ones though that are sure of the whole virus thing they believe it is not true even though hundreds of THOUSANDS are dying.
I shake my head and wonder just what they are thinking. They just cannot see the dangers that are evident. The winter goes on..the whole country it seems is now in really cold temps. Spring will come in less than 40 days and with it the hope that we turn a corner into getting back our lives.
