Joining Kelly at This Ain't the Lyceum for Seven Quick Takes.
What a week! It hasn't been too hard to stay positive. WHAT? Did I really just say that? Yes, I did. Here's how I did it:1) Stay off of social media. I listened to Hallie Lord's show on The Catholic Channel the other day; she said she made the mistake of getting on twitter, and then proceeded to fight all day long. Why do people insist on putting their political opinions on social media? Does anyone really care what my opinions are? (Yeah, I didn't think so!) Likewise, I don't really care what anyone else's opinions are...least of all some celebrity.
2) Remember the words of Father Leo Patalinghug: We will continue to be One Nation Under God. We have to continue to pray for the USA and for all of our leaders. We have to pray that the Holy Spirit will give them the wisdom to make the right choices for all of the citizens.
3) Remember the US Motto: In God We Trust. That's something we see every day, we just don't notice it. We have to trust that God knows what He's doing.
5) Uplifting videos, like this one:
I am amazed Mother Teresa said "If you want to change the world, go home and love your family." Not go to social media.. Hahaha.
ReplyDeleteI have also seen a lot of very loving and respectful posts out in the world. Trusting that light always wins.
I have found the violent and unpatriotic reactions to be childish and abhorrent. God is still in control!! We conservatives survived eight years of Obama without riots and flag burnings. The libs can survive four years of the Donald! Enough already! Be not afraid!!
