Does anyone else just randomly break down and cry since Trump was inaugurated?

37. I'm all over the board, sometimes sad, other times angry, and occasionally even joyous.

Yes, we learned that millions of people voted for a terrible person for varying reasons and put our nation and the world at risk. It seems overwhelming and terrifying at times, but we also learned that there are millions of us and we're unifying and rallying and speaking up. Attorneys, judges, elected reps, agencies, and many more are all taking action and achieving some successes. Did you ever expect this much fight and passion against DJT's cruel agenda? It not only helps obstruct his plans, but it boosts morale for all of us who want to protect our democracy and who believe in the law, ethics, equality, compassion, etc. You're not alone in this journey!

What also helps me is actually doing something, such as donating what little I can afford to Planned Parenthood, buying one of the Zoe bands (money goes to refugees for food, medicine, or even sleeping bags), contributing what I'm able towards the rebuilding of the burned down mosque in Texas, calling or sending emails to representatives and senators, signing petitions, etc. I feel better and stronger emotionally, too, when I'm taking action. I obviously cannot personally stop DJT from causing havoc and upset, even sleepless nights, but he can't take away my right to reject him and his goals or to pursue compassion and help people and strive for the best in myself. I like being in opposition to his hate, bullying, pathological lying, and wicked agenda!

Here's a bit about the Zoe Bands (in case you haven't seen anything about them):

Zoë Bands are handmade uni-sex bracelets made from the life vests refugees wear on their dangerous journey into Lesvos, Greece.

All profit goes towards providing refugees with critical resources like food, clothing and medical supplies.
