I am feeling strangely, wonderfully calm and at peace today.
More than I have in years – 4 years to be exact.
Not just because of what I heard,
but more so because of what I did not hear.
I did not hear that Covid-19 was a hoax.
I did not hear that man-made Climate Change was a hoax.
I did not hear that our beautiful wild lands should be exploited for what’s beneath them.
I did not hear that the election was a fraud.
I did not hear that Democrats want to destroy our freedom.
I did not hear that Mexican immigrants are rapists and drug dealers.
I did not hear that white supremacists
and those chanting “Jews will not replace us”
were among the “good people.”
I did not hear that Trump was a very stable genius,
smarter than the generals and the scientists,
and only he could fix what was broken.
I did not hear an incessantly whining president.
Oh my gosh. What a beautiful day. Thank you, Lord.
