I struggle daily here in Red Ohio, feeling Surrounded. And as a student of history and one who reveres this country's past, I feel so deeply wounded and ashamed by the assault on the Presidency.<br /><br />But, as you said, we have to find Our Way.

Jan - Thanks....Thanks for your comments, everyone.<br /><br />Jan - Thanks. And thanks for reminding me of wonderful and delicious spring greens.<br /><br />Patti-Thanks for the kind words. I also have relatives who are on the other side of politics. I don't write them off because I understand them. They cannot see further than their own town. Maybe I will learn to be more charitable to those not related to me.<br /><br />Linthead-Your posts and your comments always make me feel better. Somehow I suspected that you are also a fan of Shaun.<br /><br />Bug - Lucy and I would welcome you at any time.<br /><br />Jayne - You've been through quite a lot this past year. You have been much in my thoughts as you continue on your journey.<br /><br />Robin - You have a marvelous attitude and I'm trying to emulate it. You have been through so much pain this year and still you look for the positives.NCmountainwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00615765649828716560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-6660411992146531072017-04-30T11:11:10.210-04:002017-04-30T11:11:10.210-04:00This is a very challenging time for our country.

My older brother has been saying since the end of January when the new president had his inauguration and my mother had a stroke leading to vascular dementia, that he lost his mother and country in the same weekend. It has been a profoundly sad time for those who have a completely different vision of how we would like the world to be. Still, we look for beauty all around us and absolutely relish the sweet friendship of fellow bloggers and all the doggies.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3906718086309436335.post-23111645889221399572017-04-30T07:59:32.445-04:002017-04-30T07:59:32.445-04:00Hi old friend!

Well, also from life sometimes too. I find that I can't really spend too much energy worrying about the political scene - I think I'm still in a kind of shock.

It has been a tough time lately and face to face, I avoid politics completely. I have family members on the other side. Like you, I find the written word more doable. I can only hope our system will survive this with out too much damage. Can't remember when I have exhaled completely. Hang in, I plan to.
