Waiting

                 Election Day was three days ago and we still don ’ t know who the president is for the next four years.  I am hoping NOT Trump and yet at the same time, I know there will be violence from some Trump supporters who don ’ t understand that bullyism and threats do not make any country great.  They are abusing their freedoms and taking away others ’ freedoms.  There are so many ballots – more than any other year.   Perhaps four times as many.   It takes a long time to count – especially if there are less volunteers due to COVID.   If Joe Biden wins, I hope he sends in a crew to sterilize the white house and not move in for another month or two after his inauguration – that is if Big Baby Trump and his groupies don ’ t make it such an unrealistic ordeal.   Joe Biden has campaigned for being for the people – all people – whether he was voted in by that person or not.   Trump wi...

Let the Sunshine In!

                  The skies are clear and the sun is shining through.   It’s about 54 degrees – 10 degrees warmer than three hours ago.   Looks and feels like a completely different day.                This morning there was a dingy fog.   Thick. Appearance was not clean.   It felt eerie – mirroring the upcoming election.              Tomorrow is the last day to vote. Whatever the results there’s going to be tension.   It’s as though the fog was a sign of what’s to come.                Malitia if Trump should lose the elect ion.   He will not leave the white house gracefully.   His mindless fans will protect him.   I cannot even grasp the behavior of so many who refuse to see what is right in front of them or hear what words come out from Donald Trum...

Halloween and Elections: Both Haunting

Image
  Jenna LOVES Halloween!  For her it is the most exciting holiday of all federal and non federal holidays. Halloween starts early each election year – especially in this decade we call 2020.  Halloween that started in March and has introduced each month with a new “ scare ” tactic.  California has denounced having Halloween this year.  Not so much to do with Corona but because of the wild fires. Our nation has looked at Halloween head-on.  The latest has been with the presidential and vice-presidential debates.  Is demonstrating childish behavior really a part of the politician ’ s criteria? “ I want to hear what your credentials are – not what crazy theories (or made up lies) you may have about your opponent. ”   When both opponents are slinging mud, it ’ s really hard to decide.   What is up with the “ leadership ” of this nation?   Enough with the mudslinging, name calling and so forth!   I would like to hear each side w...

Suspicions and Disbelief

Image
               The media has picked up the story that Donald Trump has tested positive for Covid and he and Malania are going to quarantine themselves for the next two weeks.   The story says that Ivana Trumps personal assistant had tested positive and therefore Trump was tested too?   Of course FOX was probably the first to build up this story and I think that is all it is.   A story.   Another lie.   A scam.   Another ploy to build sympathy among his faithful followers.   The debates of course can’t possibly take place now.             My guess would be that after he screwed things up for himself at the debate – his new campaign manager or whoever had suggested that Donald Trump pose in front of a church holding a Bible (like what would Donald Trump know about religion?) told Donald to Tweet and others followed.   I have absolutely no proof, but I th...

Do You Pray About Direction on Who to Vote for?

                In the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we are taught that we existed before we came to earth.  Our Heavenly Father had presented a plan for each of us to experience life on earth.  Lucifer wanted to represent each of us in returning us home safely.  He wanted to make heaven great again.  He also wanted all of the glory.  Jehovah said he thought it would be better if we made our own choices and exercised our free agency.  2/3 of God’s children supported Jehovah’s plan while the other third didn’t want to make choices or think for themselves.  They weren’t Republicans necessarily because the Republican Party did not exist at that time (listen here )                 I find it interesting that the ones who followed Jesus wanted to make choices and exercise a free agency that we probably didn’t even understand – just as many Trump supporters don’t s...
