Oct 2020

It is our job to get them the heck out and bring our government back to something that is functional and for the PEOPLE, not for the Billionaires and the stock market.

We need to not take anything for granted - every vote counts - but there IS reason to be hopeful and just a little bit joyful.

I said it before, people can only stay in a state of anger and fear for so long - the body, the spirit will yearn for balance. The pendulum always swings back.

Have Faith, Bellieve,
Annette
