The answer to all your problems - by Lance

Things have gotten rather testy again.  Just as the embers from one fire fade away a new one has erupted.  And because it involves Trump it is ugly, as it has been since the day he won the election.

I am going to paraphrase a very good piece of advice I have read many times.

When you are disturbed, it is because you choose to find some person or situation unacceptable.  The only way to find peace is to accept that person or situation as simply being a fact that you cannot change.  And if you cannot change the person or the situation maybe you should change your attitude.

Shakespeare said, "All the world is a stage, and all of the men and women merely players."  He didn't name any of us the chief critic.  But, critic we are.

I accept that people hate Trump.  I accept that they are passionate about their feelings.  I accept their attacks against those who accept that our president is, well the president.  I will respond to some, not out of anger or hate, and Express my opinions.

I dont care if you dont like them.  Your insults and hate have no impact on my life.  I cannot change you or your opinion any more than I can change who is president.  Finding and pointing out your flaws is something I may do if pressed. I'm still a man after all.

There is a bit of good in the worst of us, and a bit of bad in the best.  Accept that and you will be much happier.
