22. we need to start with small victories
Sun Feb 19, 2017, 11:48 PM
Feb 2017

And we need hope. Most of us are waging battles daily, and we need to look forward to victories as we fight this war. You may be saying don't get our hopes up, but our morale is high even as it is low. We are angry, outraged, scared and determined to take back our country; we have risen and more are rising to fight for our rights.
Perhaps you meant to encourage us to remain vigilant and not to.be lulled into false sense of security or victory if we get rid of 45.we know this and there have been discussions on whether pence would be worse. We are all waiting to see the shoes fall and dropkick them in the head.then we will rejoice and move on to the next battle. It Is draining,and we all need to.take a break from it sometimes. Maybe you need a break. Then come back stronger and ready to do battle!
