The election caused me to feel a great sense of powerlessness. Myself and thousands others put our heart and souls into creating a movement that sought to overcome the climate of fear and replace it with hope. We were defeated. And I am mad as hell about that. But it can be a good thing because anger can be channeled into constuctive action. Over the last couple of days I've decided that the cure for powerlessness and depression is to take action. So that's what I plan to do in my personal life and well as in the social and political arena. I found this website to be especially comforting because it has pictures of kindred people and you can see the emotion in their eyes. http://www.sorryeverybody.com/gallery/1/
