A Nation Healing

Afflicted after political taunts, hateful remarks and questioned immorality. Notions of lies and corruption flooded the Internet; friends clashed. A nation enraged staked her voice at the polls; results shocked some. Trouble in the streets: looting, killing, and burning our American flag. Instigated by sensation sellers, the media played games with American minds. On the hill and far away anger moved into every home with the Internet. No one who followed the elections was spared from relentless anxiety. How would unification and healing take place in the midst of organized chaos? Even the election itself fell under attack; peace in America was questioned. Aching hearts and messed up minds approached disparagement with caution. Life like this in our Great America was unthinkable; the masses became mobs. Imprinted in each U.S. citizen was the tradition of Unification after an election. Now, notions of wars, socialism, communism, and every other-ism roared. Growing wisdom, kindness, and direction will heal and make America Great Again. 1/3/2017
