For me, I think the worst time of the year is election years. Maybe its just me, but I just don't care for politics, which some people would be upset about or call me naïve because politics can change my future; but I don't understand politics, I never have, and I don't think I ever will. I'm not registered to vote and honestly I wouldn't even know where I would go to vote, but just because politics aren't important to me, doesn't mean that I can't see what is going on in America.
This election year is probably one of the worst ones America has had in quite sometime, but that doesn't make it okay to be assholes to each other. I understand that Trump isn't the president most of us would have wanted, but complaining on Facebook isn't going to solve anything.
We live in a place that we can openly express our opinions, but to express an opinion is stating what you believe in WITHOUT belittling, tearing down. or being rude to another person because they have different beliefs than your own. If our elders have taught us anything, it is that if we don't have anything nice to say, then don't say it all. Many Americans have forgot this. I'm here to remind you to think before you speak and act.
There are more than one way to express what you believe in and how you feel about this election than being mean. America was dealt a tough hand with this new unexpected outcome, but it was the hand we were dealt and we are going to handle this like MATURE, ADULT, and KIND human beings that we are.
It can only go up from here, so instead of tearing down others who don't look like us, or have the same beliefs as us, we should be kind, because there is enough hate in this world already, and I know I wouldn't want to be the cause to make more.
It's a long road ahead of us to "make America great again" or to just deal with what we don't want, but it's a lot easier to take it day by day and staying positive and classy while doing so.
