DEFIANT-HOPE!

Just when we think the bottom has dropped out of decency, compassion, integrity, you-know-who sinks even lower and … he couldn’t care less.

His focus is acquisition
— acquisition of lands, their natural resources, power, money.
And if human beings are acquired for his purposes in the meantime (young men and women and their parents/families are living in fear of conscription happening) for him to acquire Greenland and whatever else he wants to possess and drain, it’s important to remember that he couldn’t care less.

American friends are ramping up enquiries to what possibilities there are for their sons/daughters to get citizenship in other countries based on grandparent/dual citizenship possibilities.

I loved Michelle Obama’s “when they go low, we go high” but …
But what “high” can be achieved in today’s political turmoil and chaos?

Many say they have no hope.
They’ve lost any hope they had.
But in spite of the sense of hopelessness that many are feeling, I cannot
– and will not
give up hope
… hope that the people will resist, resist, resist.

I cannot and will not give up hope that
the people of the United States
the people of Greenland
the people of Canada
the people of any other nation the hawk-in-the-White-House
wants to acquire.

My word for this year is two words, not just one word.
Two words that I’m putting into one hyphenated word
… a paradox word that holds defiance and possibility together:
DEFIANT-HOPE
(resistance because of hope).

Resist
Be defiant
And always,
hold onto the hope!

Time for some DEFIANT-HOPE!
