Election 2020. Will It Be The End Of Humankind Or Will It Be What We Need To Find Our New Normal?

By Midlifemargaritas @mdlifemargarita

We are just a few days away from Election Day 2020. Is this the end of the world? A new fresh start? Armageddon? I think we are all very anxious and excited in a way to find out. The one thing I hope more than anything, is that we can all be calm and move on afterwards like rational humans.

Is that even possible? I don’t know, but I am hoping and praying. So this post will be shorter than normal. I don’t have the right words or eloquence to create an inspiring and moving piece today. Just throwing out my thoughts and fears before the real shitshow starts.

We realize that we no longer speak the same language of love with each other. We now judge people on their politics and values and not on their hearts. We tell people to “be kind” while we are quick to jump on someone who we think is not smart enough to understand.

We don’t know how to feel when we see cities and businesses being looted and burned. We see the violence but turn away because ‘what’s the point of trying to work it out’. We see our polite society is no more. We have different opinions of censorship and free speech.

We can’t seem to get along or agree to disagree. We are right and they are wrong. Here’s hoping all that can change before 2021. Maybe we could all use a little change of heart. Maybe instead of blaming someone or something else for the divisiveness in our country, we should try fixing it and not depend on the government. It starts with us, me, you.

Please be kind to others on election day and going forward. I’ll be back with my sass soon!

PEACE, LOVE and Margaritas…
