Water Maniacs

1. I'm mulling this over, H20 Man.

From my humanistic conscience....

Once I got over the shock from the election results of 2016, I struggled to understand what happened, and why. This struggle helped me reach a deeper understanding of nuance, degrees, perception.

I learned some Trump voters were motivated solely by despair, some by a complete loss of faith in "the system", some by a lack of information. Some had previously voted for Obama. Believe me, prior to listening, I was prepared to discount them all, and there is still a chunk of them I want stay away from.

Awful as it was, the election helped me grow. I'm going to continue toward understanding others and helping us come together, and at the same time feel good about the values I hold dear.

Today, when I saw photos of those precious children gassed in Syria, I honestly saw the foolishness of arguing over why a person who wants peace but has a (D) after their name is better than a person who wants peace but has an (I) after their name....or vice versa.
