Prepping to do my YouTube show since Thursday, but the news of this, that and another thing keeps happening.
It has been just, wow. Unbelievable, and yes, scary. I keep reminding myself that "the only thing to fear is fear itself", but I can't help to think that the fear is what is feeding this virus of hate.
Heck, maybe that is something to try to talk about. What we can try to do to ease the fear so not to feed the hate.
Any ideas you guys have on how to ease the fear?

(9,782 posts)Repeat as many time as necessary. To me it says own your fear, acknowledge it, understand it, let it pass...fear will consume you if left on its own bouncing between the sides of your skull. Dont let it.
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

(111,110 posts)...someone like Donald Trump. How did we get to that point? Many of those voters hated Barack Obama, I am certain. The racism in our country was much deeper than many people may have thought?
I keep asking "Why?" Why would they vote for such a low-life, scumbag, lying, deceitful criminal, as Donald Trump? It was on full display before the election, yet they enthusiastically supported him all the way. There was a void in their lives and he filled it.
