With the reelection of Trump, our country is disabled.
When I became disabled, I learned pretty quickly as the disability takes over your body, that you are pretty much on your own. You learn to make do and fight to survive. To make a life. Or, you give up.
Eventually, even those close to you avoid you, with well-meaning intentions and sayings, like "I hate to see you like this." We won't get into the truth of that, and why they abandoned for the most part, the people they love and care for, it's for another thread
Then as the disability isolates you more, and you become homebound, you're on your own even more. You learn to fight and make a new lifestyle and "society" for yourself.
COVID lockdowns gave a taste of that to people not in our situation, some gave more empathy
Now, with the reelection of Trump our country is disabled. We, as a collective group of people that love freedom and democracy, well, we are on our own to fight to survive and save what we have and do what we can to restore it
That is how I am feeling this morning. #USPol.
