I'm not political. I'm not a debater. I don't like conflict and I don't like to start conflicts. But I'm just not ok with what I keep seeing and hearing.
I've tried very hard to look at everything from all points of view and with an open mind. I'm for keeping our country safe. Yes. But after reading so many stories of innocent people being trapped and not knowing what to do makes me so sad. I feel terrible for those with families who they can't help. I see stories of these people coming here and having American born children...their parents have traveled and are trapped-all I can think is "How can someone do this"? My mind won't stop. Tearing families and what seems like our country apart isn't what "we the people" stands for.
"We the people"- we work together, fight together, move forward together, and we certainly shouldn't turn against each other (which is the direction I feel things are headed towards).
My hope is that even though policies look very unpleasant and tense, is that things settle and the best choices are made for the good. There are good people out there fighting for the rights of these people.
My goal as an American, a wife and a mom is to teach my kids how to be good, compassionate and loving individuals. Ones that go out of their way, to make sure the people who look as if they don't have friends; will go to them and be their friend. To be that person who will sit and listen to anyone who needs an ear. To spread love and joy!
I'm that kind of person. I want and expect my kids to be the same. The world needs this. Love and lots of it.
